Anatomy of Change

Your skin
wrapped up
In Jack Daniel
paper trails

Your heart
inked up
In the tattoo parlor
named Manhattan

Your eyes
tearing up
With anesthesia
clouding monotony

Your fingertips
balancing
The secrets of trees
leaving sap

Your head
lifting up
Angels and gargoyles
separating stone

Your feet
contemplating anatomy
While the London Bridge
rebuilds itself
