Drained
Drained
As I roll out of my skin
and rise from the river
like the bubbles in fine champagne,
they tell me I’m built with stolen parts.
____I crust and steal a vein
____(or scarecrows)
____to amuse myself
Shame bites with ugly teeth;
a wildcat with razor eyes
on the monkey
that breaks my lifeless back.
Now I lay with sand,
swollen and forgotten
like soldiers dipped in dry egg
discarded with the surplus drains.
