A DEPICTION OF MY BODY<br />
a depiction of my body as small, neat<br />
as though she doesn’t eat corridors, hallways<br />
as though she crawls in streets, tall<br />
a description of a politics outside of power, pride<br />
as though we move sideways, against towers<br />
as though we are, butt first, against tides so sour<br />
a denunciation of the coldness in things, a hearth<br />
as though here, on earth, I have access to empathy<br />
imagining, with fright, a power in women<br />
UNPROTECTED<br />
falling<br />
into<br />
the<br />
type of sleep<br />
that has to<br />
involve<br />
strangers<br />
