we scratch, we reach for
that spot
to relieve the skin
of
itchiness.
what makes us itch?
what is it,
the mohair sweater,
the pollen,
the drink,
the food, the cold
or warm
weather.
allergies and medicine?
maybe it's the chlorine
in the pool,
the sauna that we took
the hot water,
the detergent in the washer,
the soap
we use. sweat?
i don't know exactly what
it is,
but I'm thankful for your
long pink nails,
a little up, please,
and to the left.
