When I was a kid
I would go into my Dad’s
garage and tear apart
anything I could grab
I never wanted to know
how it worked
to destroy
to see the insides
bare on the table
to name each piece
see it’s function
The Ninja Turtles
The phone’s bell
The wheel in the VCR

The baby cries
on the changing table
my peach flesh fuzz
creation
the sperm and egg
cocktail spun inside
and worked out through
my vagina
What are you really
beautiful creature
Stardust and sex
blue eyed product
Unsolvable puzzle
