This is the girl who won’t eat a doughnut who won’t eat a hamburger bun. This is the little girl who doesn’t gain weight for two years I’m worried about you her mother says. This is the girl skinning the cat on the old clothesline the rusted cross poles. This means that her body is light is fit is tight an unthought-of thing it moves and prances it loves to be tickled. It lifts itself up into trees. It runs across the pasture its mother washes it and bathes it and lays out its clothes. It argues with Angela on the playground who is the fattest I am I am fatter than you it bunches up its thigh and shouts no, no, I am fatter than you.
