He isn’t a nobody
That body
Soft skin
Broken in
Wrinkled and
Crying

She isn’t a nobody
Homebody
Welfare mother
Struggling
Working
Fast food
Registered nurse
Still not enough
To fill her purse
To feed her kids
And pay the bills

He isn’t a no body
But that ****** body
Is all we have left
A memory
Water skin drying out
Dying, no dead
What they were lying about
How one man is worth
So much less
You forget yourself
Because he is you and me
Somebody to somebody
