on the schoolbus a friend put salt in my hair
the seats were green maybe it was all indoors
many drivers different years -
then ran his hand through my hair
and the salt fell and fell did it happen at all
been falling ever since
eew he said
and I think,
when my eyebrows flake,
or my ears leave layers under my fingernails
if he hadn't thrown salt,
would I now be dissolving
