The Building Storm

Sigh.

Know

How I want to

Say this.

But

The words

Do not seem

Right.

In

Expressing

The depth and feeling

About this need

Of mine.

Regarding

My birth body

And the genetic errors

Which exists

Between my legs.

As

My thoughts become

More and more

Focused upon

Ways of removing

These defects.

Should

I take knife

In hand

Be risking all

For a moment joy.

Need

To resolve this

One way

Or another.

Thank you, Holly. My poems are, often, an extension of my thought process, in dealing with issues that I have shelved or am working my way through.
