This body

 This body 

Is somebody new, if old;

Wishing many possible types of shedding

mutations, rejuvination, yet bold

statement of accumulation, yelding,

submitting to the forward changes

slowly, and painfully watching 

as my anatomy through time ages


It's only my human cage

Bones, nerves, muscles, heart

Ticking time, and time again

Prayer, beauty and art

Can only take away the pain

For just a little while

For a little while

For a while
