cut

I am I am
     in the moment before the scalpel falls
   eviscerated laughter
           am compromise
       I am I will
be.

      Mother/lover
   surgeon, child
               and healer.  I am all
of these and none.
       
       I am I am
   and watching you
            madonna/jezebel
       great round
with child

     the scalpel falls.
