My Disgusting Skin

I shed another skin this morning-
right out of a steamy primordial shower.

It came off in thin transparent films.

Slightly grey in color.

Almost sticky,
Definitely gross.

Disgusted a little,
I peeled off what was left of my former self.

I look at it,
all crumpled and sorry-
a feathery skin pile mess.

I can't help but wonder what this all means,
and who might occupy this new skin.
