letters

when my head hurts i don't need a doctor to tell me why;
i know it's because there's nowhere to put it. where it's put
dissolves, and then there is my head, scorching, freezing,
dripping against a simple insistence on temporary limits.
today was just so. i felt such revulsion looking at my fries,
each one exposed so much like myself, but even needier,
trusting me, my head, belly, for shelter. There's no shelter
here, friends
