My Body is My Temple- I Decorate Accordingly
Dried paint
Dotted on my skin
Freckles of green
On an ivory canvas
Smudged pastel
Smeared to my elbow
A rainbow of oil
Emphasizing my absentmindedness
Faded scribblings
Penned on my left hand
An inky vine
Of diversion from the day’s agenda
Embellishing an otherwise uniform body
With marks of individuality
