sighting.

"why did you have to have those eyes?"
i say to the stranger who just walked past....
really?
that face?
those marks?
the shape of those ears?
is it necessary?
to make other people....
with those little bits
that look so much like,
well..........

and in my head
a collage
with mental scissors,
a choppy half remembered picture.
that i dissect,
in random moments i have to spare.
the shape of the eyes
the curve of the chin
with razor in hand.
i would cut your hair like delilah.
but i would be left weak......
