Your Bodily Dysmorphias


 
Scrubbed inordinately
clean and bright,
so as to be inordinately
seen, the sight

of all your bodily dysmorphias
(attired in scanty white)
today, improbably,
does not occasion fright.

So much
you thought might
happen hasn’t:
not a single fight –

no arguing
from spite –
no caring very much
who’s right.

They don’t look bad
in all this light.
One wonders what
they’ll do tonight.
