Where I am
Living in this body
takes courage
more than gusto
or gumption
to some
I appear to be unreal
as if I don't exist
and for others I'm
all fangs waiting to
devour them as
I feel them
slowly disintegrate
into the bile of my
stomach
but I am just me plain
and quiet with big
storms inside
the living thunder
raging underneath like
the big bang...
