Insulating, soft
Keeps me warm at night
Yet, during stationary days
Feels almost parasitic under my skin

Ballooning under purple silk
Like the crest of a swelling wave
Yet stifled by a cinched skirt
Like fig wasps, suffocated within

If only I could unzip my skin
Like it were a large overcoat
And form a new body
Like building with lego pieces
Like sewing up a new rag doll
With stuffing strewn astray

People would tell me I look fine
But in the mirror are peaks aplenty
Contorting beyond imagination
Evoking formidable despair

And compulsions to curb my sustenance
To feel the gratifying sense of emptiness
Yet to give in to the waves today
Means throwing more of my precious time away

If only I could unzip my skin
Like it were a large overcoat
And form a new body
Like collaging with paper pieces
Like sewing up a new stuff toy
With stuffing strewn astray
