iron_and_silverim not happy with the ending but here is the poem for tonight
Geography of a desert body
(in the bathtub)
A head the color of sun yellow
with wavy rays
streaming down towards
clay shoulders rounded
like small soft hills.
Breasts calm like long resting skulls
In a thick heat of isolation.
Copper knees perched high
like steep plateaus
miles away from toes
clinging to the side
of a porcelin mountain.
The desert has become an oasis.
