James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Dramatic Monologue

A Now Well Rested Body-

"I have two big toes,
 two pinky toes 
And two bunions

 and I should I walk or run 
Where's my platform shoes
Or should I just lay on my heels

I have 2  eyes 
Yet, I see naught
My pupils are not in class

And my legs are restless
Am I asleep
I'm just laying on my heels

I have a throat and a mouth 
and my vocal cords vibrate yeah!
 I have a speech impediment 
And I stutter 
And my breath is like warm butter

I have 2 eyes
A nose and a mouth
Now all body functions rested
I am infested with the sleep I rest I'm rested
I'm just laying on my heels"

"All body functions have stopped none of which are not moving don't be derailed I'm not fooling don't be saddened be glad because my true self is not here it's risen"~
