Stripping down

Ode to the body Guru

Deep in the bones
That’s where it goes
Taken in
Deep
To the
Bones
Observe the depressions
Gouges
Nail marks
Scrapings and such
Scarred from a life well lived
Worn yet unbreakable
Honed like the finest steel
Able to reflect all feeling
Vibrate with every emotion
Sustained by joy
Embraced by the peace of compassion born of the truest love
Burned or buried makes no mind
All life exists in the soil and on the wind
Nothing is ever lost
