Nancy Jones Poet Free verse

Body Parts

Down to my toes
up to my belly button.
Feel cross-currented web of my fingers and
inside and outside my ear.

Back of my knee
itched when was young
but no longer on radar screen.
Numb?

Air's to breathe
water's to drink.
All else, frankly, is 
negotiable.

What's that all about? Tony Nancy Jones November 17, 2011 at 4:34 PM red pizzas or red tringles? Nancy Jones November 17, 2011 at 3:31 PM Maybe triangles make more sense than squares?
