Margaret Atwood.

How much longer
can I be so fucking cute,
she says.
Not much longer.
...when I was all body, I was lazy.
I had an easy life and was not grateful.
Now there are more of me.
Don't confuse me with my hen-leg elbows:
what you get is no longer
what you see.

I memorize each line
as though it were mine.
