she rolled the body
on the ground
cut the hair
long and brown
scraped off the flesh
into bits and pieces
carefully detached
all the nails
as if they were
prized details
she glued these ornaments
on to to her very own body
she wanted to feel
like somebody
perhaps
anybody
she wanted to feel
what it was like to be
the girl whose identity
she would steal
the girl whose life
she killed
