Losing Your Breasts

Every night you lose your breasts.

First one and then the other.


Every night one breast falls into an inaccessible place

A crack between you and you


Between the you you were and the you you will be

If you ever find your breast.


There is no sound when it falls.

There is a sound a very soft sound


As you stare into the inaccessible place

Between you-will-be and you-were.


When you look up the other breast is gone.

You have lost yourself yourselves I mean.
