How is it we came
Designed with breath control
Conscious breathing
Vacillating with
Automatic Inhales, Exhales?
You can deep
Breathe.
Count to eight.
Diaphragm muscle
Rising, falling,
But you cannot
Tell your cells to
Divide or
Mitochondria to mate.
Golgi Bodies do what
They do when they do it
Inside a human cell.
Heart muscle pumps out a joy
Flow from head to toe.
Digestive juices go to
Crushed up food in
Stomach, intestines
Without your thoughts
Directing this internal
Multi-conductor symphony.
What creates shivers of
Tingles through
Chakra energy centers?
This body, miraculous,
Wondrous, temporal
Container,
Sacred House
For an eternal
Soul listening to
Beautiful music.
Laura, I love this. In a sense we are both perfect and imperfect. What you write tells us we are so complex, yet the very essence of simplicity
Thank you so much, Byron! Ah the body electric continues to fascinate and amaze me. I appreciate your kind words, thoughts and unwavering support for my writing. I appreciate you!
I think I recognize this, my friend! Just how many ‘conductors’ do we have as we sing the body electric? Keep up the great work!
