Today I Weigh




Today I weigh the mass of my flesh and experience
Standing on a scale, sucking numbers from the dial
Calibrating abstractions for the seal in my belly
Who barks and delights in a fish-clap display.
Here are the numbers of my fat, of my bone
Of my gristle and hair, of my skin, marrow and juices -
So today I weigh:
