Clementine

Healthy human gums 

I have learned many things 

The human body is amazing 

The slight small indentations resembles 

The efforts of a good brusher 


Maltreated menacing skin 

I haven't learned anything 

This detested human body 

The big pores on my skin which can be seen by my grandfather 

The incompetence of self care


A dreaded sense of opening something that has been protected 

I have broken a barrier 

A smooth crisp barrier 


A nauseatingly sweet smell 


Under unfortunate circumstances

I have learned one thing 

The taste of an clementine is poisonous 

The hives that appeared on this detested body 

The feeling of helplessness

I am currently working on my RDA which is why much of my inpiration, or maybe lack there of, comes from what I have been constently reviwing and seeing. All in all this was a nice, quick, and fun poem to write.
