Warped
Ananya Siragavarapu
squeezing pinching sucking
plucking teasing fluffing
as if it’s a funhouse mirror and I’m bozo the clown
as if I’m a balloon animal, welcome to any and all hands.
smoother than wet clay, with a malleability to match.
dreaming to be sculpted, carved, and cooled to perfection.
an aberration no longer
but a marvel
