our Fall

does something always end with a Fall?
even our summer?
is this sunset? the one I watched tonight from the roof
with shades on.
I did take them off. as I undressed before you on the curb
twice this week, with everyone watching.
you don’t seem to think I'm vulnerable.
I am not the one taking Naked Yoga, but I’m always stripped before you.
How much more can you ask me to remove before
I hang up my skin and show you
the back of my wings?
