fat again
by bow.


 

oh the hairy newness of it! limbs & limbs of glorious pressureweight
again
the simple strange relearning

greedyclever mouth;fingers thin
we remember our long ago bellies
touching
like the rounded ends of two eggs.

but we will grow fat again
eat til we cannot see our scars
                        or our bones
we will grow fat again and lie
with his so warm furflesh crushed against mine

picture frame mother is hell-yelling but we laugh       scream out
and happy mouths are louder

how quickly we grow fat again.
