Can Someone Give Me the Formula?

I'd love to write a poem.

Can someone give me the formula?

The fill-in-the-blank equation

where my words add up and equal

the thunderstorm in my stomach?

the...

(the what?)

I'm trapped in my brain.

She's the Calculator and Optimizer

who needs step-by-step direction

to the grass on her toes

to the sway in her hips

to drop down through her stomach

to her hands

to carry this heart to yours.
