I feel you changing shape inside me
The you that sits across from me
Is changing too
The you I’ve made for me
With appendage and grippable
Hips and soft belly
Is shifting I’m watching you shift
I’m feeling memory tug and mold
The clay of our love
Into something different
Can it please be a pea vine
Or fava blossom
Can I please know when to harvest and when to rest
The uncomfortable movement in this poem is so evocative. Really feeling it.
