Balloon

The skin used to be
a beehive that expanded
became cavernous rather than
porous and what scraped away at the start
of a season.

Now the skin expands.
I expect it will burst, I am
counting.

Here is my skin on this corner
(red and damp, thighs stuck together)
Here was your skin on this corner
shocked as with electrocution.

I am nothing past this.

Here is my skin with expansion.
I put things inside of it:
A rock, a giant red leaf, and a bottle cap.
