Pop my arm off
as if I’m a great
unwanted action
figure, an assemblage
of plastic parts held
together by molded
forms and metal screws.
Snap my leg held
in place only by
brittle rubber strands.
Twist my head from
the shell of my torso;
leave what remains
to crack under age
or melt away in
as if I’m a great

Snap my leg held
in place only by
brittle rubber strands.
Twist my head from
the shell of my torso;
leave what remains
to crack under age
or melt away in
prolonged sunlight.
