Leaving the Rotund

The breasts,

they sag

from gravity,

slumped across

the pallid tundra,

comforting

the lone nevus.

They silently

protest

against the

foreign fingers

that could not feel

the grief

of the loose folds

of skin.

They are sad

Very sad -

even though their

dark heads are

bowed low

in humble glory,

basking in praises,

as they hover above

the strangers

they hadn’t met.
