dear body
by nathan l. i. dear body: here are your hands & here is your throat & here is the skin you live in & here are all the ways you’ll come undone. ii. dear body: I’m sorry. iii. dear body: your heart is the size of a fist which is to say the smallest things are keeping us alive which is to say do you remember a spring evening and a sunset? do you remember a woman playing fetch with her dog? do you remember? iv. dear body: what a miracle it is! to make yourself anew every second of every day. what a miracle it is to say the world is a place I see myself living in and mean it.
