From top to toe?

We painted ourselves from top to toe this morning
We noticed where we wanted to skip
Or rather
Where we did
Because we skip and skip
Our attention
We can’t see what we can’t see
But this morning I saw how I couldn’t see
Into the middle of me
I couldn’t see those bones between bones
I couldn’t see where the top met the bottom
Where East met West
Looking from top to toe
Or rather, from toe to top
One could see what couldn’t be seen
Or at least that I couldn’t see it.
