freckles.

what if all

the freckles

and beauty marks

that live on your body

were actually stars,

and the stars

were the muddy and milky imprints

of galaxies

that our eyes 

just cannot quite

focus on?

What if

the universe

was your skin

and your flesh 

and the tiny bits of color

spilled out

over the curves 

of your body?
