body

the power of plants.
eating the sun for best health.
digging graves with teeth.

the soft aching bone.
the crumpled body’s twinges.
the years’ bitter pills.

i’m a derangement.
forty four angels at side.
or just getting old.

the olympic grace.
the spirit of fair trials.
winning bigger smiles.

thumping banging heart.
screaming, begging me to stop.
not until the gold.

the lack of knowledge.
not the pound of flesh you want
but the whole corpus.
