Feeling All Right
Each piece of me
that falls off of me
is more vital than the last
like starting with hair
and nails and working
its way up to feet
and hands and arms
always progressing
until I’m yelling
and I feel ridiculous
for yelling
like being in a cage
dropped into cold water
how is it possible
to feel so hot
when you feel so cold
and I wonder when it is
exactly that I stop being me
and when your bottom lip
trembles slightly
that’s the feeling
you should hold on to
