At the spa
darkened buttons
some bulleted
points, some
angle to the floor
I have no answer
for what I am
Nursery
Experiment
Time Bomb
I watch
move flawless
creatures sweat
troubles away
These troubles
I carry under
imperfect skin
I sweat
they stay
Long since
the deductibles
Long since
the curve
of my back
led to satisfaction
Winter has
shaken down
all the leaves
