do you see my hands?
my long fingers, a little bony, sometimes they hurt
they tell me i have an artist's hands
she was an artist, too
do you see my shoulders?
freckled from the sun,
just like hers were
do you see my collar bone?
it's very pronounced
maybe not as much as hers, though, toward the end
do you see me walking?
my legs are long and my hips are wide,
and my waist is small and my smile is big
just like mom
do you see me?
or do you only see her?
i'm still here
