your body is a wonderland

A Poem For Friday

February 27th, 2009

My lovely friend Chiara has written a lovely poem, and the first thing I thought when I read it is that I wanted to share it with you.

My last name means “round,” it literally means “round,” and
usually what I say is
ha ha my ancestors clearly really loved pasta
and sometimes I pat my behind
with a proud little sort of pat
and then sometimes I wink, or get close to winking
and then I grin
and then we move on to something else
and that’s it, it’s over, it’s over for now…

Really, you need to keep reading. Happy Friday.
