"throwing up"

throwing up,

turning myself inside out towards

the floor, all flesh

and bone

and blood and

raw nerves

twitching

while my skin,

layers thick and tough now,

dried by the wind and the sun and the omnipresent

dust,

climbs inwards to caress my stomach,

keep it from its pain and fever, love it while

my heart,

my corazón,

pumps

and beats and

struggles

against breaths

of warm, warm air.
