My Sister, My Sister

I dare you, it's you I dare,
to try to make three dollars
last three days.

I dare you
to sleep on a floor and
eat what's given
no matter what it may be.

I dare you
to stay in the same clothes
until you can trade them in or wash them
in someone else's sink.

I dare you
to exist like a shadow.
I dare you, you.
It's you I dare.
