the medical examiner
was confounded
by the incomplete figure
laid out on the
metal slab before her.

her report outlined
the details.

still unaccounted for:
  • 10 fingertips
  • 2 lips
  • pieces of skin from back of neck
  • a stretch of intestine
  • 2 eyes
  • 1 heart
  • 1 lung
  • and a single, solitary rib
detectives
came with questions
but my silence
did little to help.

i could not tell them
i was simply looking
for the parts of myself
you had
stolen.
