The Doubles
Kara van de Graaf
 
 
In the dressing1 room at Macy's, 
 I run into all my old bodies. 
 We are reunited when I hear them 
 shuffling in the walls, sense them 
 beneath the dirty carpet. Their hips 
 lurching out of drywall. Their breasts 
 swelling against the concrete floor. 
 I congratulate one on her thin legs. 
 We commiserate2 about side-boob. 
 We try on dresses from the junior's section 
 and laugh. Relive our proms, our red-haired 
 date who cried the whole night 
 about that other girl. We kiss. Arm-wrestle. 
 Bitch-slap. Wish we were never born. 
 When we part we look at each other longingly, 
 doe-eyed. The way two mirrors, 
 when you put them opposite, reflect 
 each other forever and ever.
