i am Better Now, and here’s how

i have impractical shoes i cross my
legs is this being a woman, my lips fuller
at eventide

i am a good girl i am a big
girl i have childbearing hips my
hips look good in jeans




you sound like grass you smell like
hills you feel like i don’t know what
i can’t feel




i like the color red i do not like the color
green my favorite dress says chuc mung
nam moi a borrowed shirt says Happy Saint Paddy’s Day

i have been to a wake i have seen a woman
when she was dead i do not like the phrase “dead
person” yes i have seen a psychiatrist

i like whiskey now i know American
names i have been to New Jersey i have seen
the shore i know



aren’t you surprised, the stones in my
mouth, those twenty pounds
gone, aren’t you surprised aren’t
you
