Transfraction
this body unrecognizable
hands feel the familiar
itch of crabgrass 3 layers deep
the lungs remember
sediment so meticulous
woven into each gust and breath
I cannot seem to recognize the
face bred for beauty with hair
butchered by familial fabric shears
yet through the warped inconsistent
tangible alteration these eyes remain the same
craving from the rest of the body
a mind that will quell dissonance between
major growth and minor
realization.
