Skin Envy

What drives the mosquito?
What drives the peregrine?
I'd like to draw around your edges
I'd like cut the seam
What drives the parasite?
What drives the lone sardine?
I'd like to unpick your threads
And live within your skin
What inspires a virus
To spread a new disease?
I'll decode your DNA
Embracing helices
Skin envy:
I would like to inhabit your body
But are we ever
Experiencing the same?
