I like our bodies when
; are soft, are fruitflushed
, borrowed cotton next to cotton
, are prepositioned (against, against)
; am butterflied (split-pinned-prized)
, am cartographed, am canonized
, am mouth back wrist thighs
, am water sign, am shoe size nine
; am some times less than sum of parts
, but some times (now) more. Now
, when we are with our bodies
; our hips agree
, am half in love with evidence of bones
, am opposite of archaeologist
, nothing buried, nothing past
