child of the world.

the irony slowly chokes me
in the dark, i feel it
down
wave upon wave till it rises
in my mouth
prayers erupting:
for smooth skin,
a night never ending,
and a day when the strength of my arms and the outline of my legs no longer matter to a single soul
not even me
until i sink in and accept that i am my surroundings
for this world has made me
why won't it feed its child?
