Nowhere to Be Found

Julia Schaffer

lay me
on a countertop
and soak me in
formaldehyde
drive my shoulders
over with a mack truck
run me through the carwash
hose me down
with the fire hose
blast
and it'll back me up to where I need to be

spread
me out in the sun
until I get cancer
leave my toes in an icebox
and then just
numb me numb me numb me shut me off
like a computer
wake me up in paradise
clip my toenails shave
my head sink me in a milk bath
and call me fish face I'm

wacko
somebody knock my lights out
