THE WOMAN WITH A TUMOR IN HER NECK

THE WOMAN WITH A TUMOR IN HER NECK

THE WOMAN WITH A TUMOR IN HER NECK

has a moth in her palm,
a river on her tongue,
a scalpel in her boat,
a lump in her throat,
a gamble in her shoe,
a fire in her den,
a shadow in her flesh,
a flutter in her breast,
like everybody else.
