strong bones
not very old,
but dinosaur bones
healing bones
bones like tree branches,
like trunks
like roots
bones of iron
bones like books
telling a story
young bones
somehow green
bending, forming
bones of memory
holding thoughts
dents and dislocation
strain and fracture
pain and past, you’re
walking in
a frame that carries
it was present
in every moment
in every scrape
and every kiss
your body knows
your body holds
part of foundation
that is you
that carries you through
