the flat back of your lower incisor
along with your soft flesh
what did you call it?
your armpit fat?
are my concern

i am the king beyond the feet
or just in the toes
putting my hand on the warm place a few hours a day
you are afraid
or want to be afraid
or want to be more afraid than i already make you
or angry with me for not scaring you
and not afraid at all
or just warm warm and aching
underneath my stare

the knee cobbled together by doctors
the lungs held tight by asthma and bike rides
the ass, the overextended lower back
the tummy that will never, never go hard
not like you want it to anyway

did you trust me with your neck or something else?
