Tale of Two Breasts-Anna's Story
Whatever you call them
breasts or twins
they precede us
and divert looks
or maybe attract none.
All life suckles there
heads lay there
babies drink.
I remember at 13,
their nuturance
and that single wish
they'd grow.
Push-ups I admit,
I tried to hurry along the process,
but such mixed feelings there.
Mine grew
My sisters didn't.
They got the attention
I didn't;
my sister got interest
in her
and not them.
They hang
a little more now
than I like;
sister and I
hug
and they
bow-
between us.
she has one less
cancer-stricken;
and I have the love
she needs;
sister bonds;
us;
one is not missed.
