Poem #1

Day 1: write a poem about something in terms of what it is not

*

"What You Are Not"

This body is not white.
It does not open doors
It does not get cabs
It is not seen

This body is not male.
It does not transcend ceilings
It does not sing in conference rooms
It is not heard

This body
is (not) hard edges
and sharp tongues


Or is it?
