Life Drawing

Draw my outline
The furrows of my ribs
And the ridges of my spine

Draw my outline
The creases in my face
And the faults in my design

Draw until you know and understand
The arch of my back like the back of your hand
I know and understand
The arch of your back and
Like the back of my hand

Draw my outline
Let your fingers trace
The contours and inclines

Draw my breath in time
With the rhythm of your hips
And the cadence in my rhyme

Draw until you know and understand
The arch of my back like the back of your hand
I know and understand
The arch of your back and
Like the back of my hand

With every stroke you note
My gestures and my tones
The tension in my tendons
And the structure of my bones

With every stroke you I note
The places you neglect
From the plane of your shoulder
To the nape of your neck
