I am
The carpet that my parents tore
Off my
Childhood bedroom floor
I am
The fingernails I chewed and spat
And left
Behind
in the next room when I unpacked
I replace
Every particle of me
I retrace
Every scar and every skid
My remains
Every body I will be
I can’t wait To be the
geezer and the kid
I’m
Kentucky clay and Spanish sand
Whenever
I go back again
I’m
just a matter of time
A segment
of a line
I replace
Every particle of me
I retrace
Every scar and every skid
My remains
Every body I will be
I can’t wait
To be the geezer and the kid
Sweet renewal of the home
Piece by piece we’re not alone
