Jessica Arteaga Poet I do not know?

Scan Me

if this what i am...
could you scan the bar code please?
trying to understand
lift my hair, feel my sweat
simply here just touch my neck
red gaze lightly sears my skin, but hurt is not at all what's felt
overpowering mental emotion, physical pain is just a notion
invalid
invalid
invalid
moment of misleading runs to hope
hope sleeps on top of wait
wait turns empty under faith
invalid 
invalid
invalid
could you scan the bar code please?
as I tremble on my knees
pulsing heartbeats shift my mind
done you over least twelve times
is the price a bit to high?
or disgusting am i, like the things on sale
disregarded, spoiled, keep me in storage
if this what i am...to everyone's knowledge
