hmmm.









I'm no man.

I'm no dingy sir in a hardhat,

Or another in a suit.

I am female.

From head to toe-

Minus my forearms.



As I move my fingers

Across the keyboard,

My muscles pop

In and out

Of my arms and

Leave me disgusted.

I cannot stand my forearms.



I hesitate to raise my hand

And cross my arms,

For the simple truth is that

I cannot stand my forearms.



Disgustingly toned

And viciously scarred,

Clearly these are not mine.

Has someone stolen my forearms?
