our bodies

this is going to be a continuing project amongst friends...and you?

my new body

my core would be a mandolin
my heart would be a pomegranate, with a locket pinned to it
my legs could be asparagus
my arms fiddlehead ferns
my mouths would be made of typewriter parts
and my eyes of stained glass
my intestines constructed of paper and thread
my blood could be made of tea, oolong and smooth

my ears made of jasmine and jade
my fingers - piano keys
my brain and mind would be made of wire with beads and bells, and old camera lenses, so that everything i see through stained glass eyes is captured


somewhere i'd like a persimmon and a blood orange
