my freckles come in pairs.
each brown spot connected to another.
what would I look like with an
exoskeleton of pen marks in black ink?
a geometric David
with weapons of sharp angles and pi.
my intelligence only gets me so far.
i am marred by these dots,
by this double connectiveness to myself.
analyzed, capsized, and falling.
my outer  layer is only skin deep.
spotted or not, it is no armor
to protect myself from me.

Loved the imagery and the flow of your words. 2 thumbs up my friend.

Cold hands means a warm heart
