I am so white
Chalk-white and dry
Skin like cardboard
Peeling snakeskin
Scattered about
Hard and white
as excavated bones
The dirt of years
washed away and cleansed
for exhibition
what I wouldn't give
for a taste of gray
for a splash of red
Look at these stains
Reminders
The bottoms of her feet
were dirty and yellow
Her eyes were green
This has alot of textures, I really like it, there is so much to see and feel in this poem.
