pound of flesh

the round bit
of me begins
and the round bit of me
starts
and smooth like
softest butter leather
and
smelling of sun
and inside the finger
bowl,
something liquid
is forming shapes like
oil slick on the skin
like the blue rainbow on the dust brown
head and foot
front and back back to front
rolling the skin ball in
sliding under the flesh
and
every open pore was breathing honey
