Again, the Body
Lucia Perillo
When you spend many hours alone in a room
you have more than the usual chances to disgust yourself--
that is the problem of the body, not that it is mortal
but that it is mortifying. When we were young they taught us
do not touch it, but who can keep from touching it,
from scratching off the juicy scab?
