BODY IMAGE Poem: Pickings, by Kelley Scoleri

Cut the fat from my thighs and / I will season the meat / pluck my eyes like petals and / I will hold them gently / trash them when they get cold and / I will dig their grave / use my hair to patch your sock and / I will thread the needle / when you are done / please do not leave me / I will discard the rest.
