Perform and Perform

This poem is about performing and performing, hiding and hiding.

Did I forget my body?

Perform and perform,

Without an end and without a plan

Just performing and showing

That I am a good girl?

Is that the answer to the puzzle,

What am I missing all along,

Or is it paired with that giftedness,

That I managed to hide so well?
