Poem and a Question


Plea to the Maker of Living Dolls

 Take me in parts, dissected and jagged centimeters
Remove my vocal chords so she may sing
Peel my skin in strips applied
Live to her lifeless skeleton, I’ll feel it all
Give my lungs to her breath

 My body, inadequate to make her whole
Quivers and betrays with a consistent, beating heart
I place her into your hands, Maker
So you may build her anew from me
Neither of us living while she lies, unmoving

    What a great poem. I do use Facebook, a little. I have to get better at using it and I think that will happen after my book releases. I hope haha.

    Twitter is a mess for me to use right now. I don't use it very often.
