I am Eve
constantly reborn
out of the chest of man.
I am alive & naked
and I spring forth into some new temptation
Leaving my lover limbless.

What power is this
that I can capture air
imprison it in my lungs
crowded and noisy,
Let it flow around this body of mine
and expel it
deformed, changed
saddled with my impurities
leaving it toxic, dirty.
and I get to breathe in again
repeat this spectacle over and over
for the many days of my life.
