I used to say
These are not my people
From here
Looking out
The vantage glib
Lumpy sacs
Hiding tubes
Sometimes guarding
Occasionally well
Always smelly
Glancing at glass
I was not dancing
But surviving
Riddled with holes
Across my face
And elsewhere
We could be friends
Now that I know
We are the same
I brush my teeth
Deodorize thoughtfully
Give a tight lip smile
Revealing surrender
Inquisitive eyes
Become inquisitions
This world was built
When we found it
My luggage is packed
As is yours
The suit is the case
And vice versa
We can become great fans
Round is round
And celebrated
For being just distracting enough
You too
Are enough
They will beg you to believe
When holding up a spoon
Or being one
