Arlene Corwin Poetry

    From Now On

Age, Its new formations;
Seen reflected when these eyes
Unclose and criticize in sympathy,
I.e. the me, this day and every day
When forearm, tricep, bicep
Hangs a bit, skin covering it,
Kiio weights kept on the floor
An aid no more.
Cosmetic harmony belittled,
(Though not fatal)
Strength losing battle.
Drawing on word-endings sounding -ee,
Like ‘bloody’ and ‘biodegradability’.
