Not tare
as in
a deflated blimp
but the sum
of your self berm,
more or less; yes!
Much like the sips
leading
to tangled speech,
singly harmless
like a small-toe thingamabob,
too much like pumice
to pass
the naming threshold.
Jointly, a devastating kick
whole enough
for a second round of naming,
a name badge like skin,
papery
& unmistakable
in a stationery
as well as
among
skinny-dipping tourists;
here! Here! Mere skin
no longer; from skin
to someone
comfortable in their own
name; nibyo!
Not vibrating hide,
one drummer boy
is enough of an orchestra;
skol! No more
Rorschach tests made of
whilom wildlife; salut!
