Binary Star – S. Gerard

Cold food takes more energy to digest than warm food.
The body has to heat it up to break it down.
I read that online just now.
Time is a matter of scale and balance.
Equilibrium.
Of keeping myself intact while shedding outer layers.
I turn in circles before the mirror.
I urinate and return to the mirror.
I turn in circles.
I try on everything in my closet before the mirror and hate it.
I look terrible changing.
I weigh myself again and again and again and still I am 92.
