I am an archeological dig.
Chisel away,
measure my fissures,
probe.
You don’t intimidate me
with your sharp
instruments and
your big
drill.
I see the blood
it doesn’t phase me.
Even when you
grin.
You see,
before you strapped me
down
I had a lot of
responsibility.
Here,
I can simply
submit
to the specimen
I am.
