It is my birthday.
I’m going to cover every inch of my body
with strawberry jam.
I will then shave myself
from head to toe until
I’m bare-skinned as a newborn.
Afterwards, I plan to walk
calmly
through the neighborhood streets --drawing attention, perhaps.
(nude man, strawberry jam)
But proud.
To be alive, nude
and absolutely delicious.
