today was the day that my body stopped groaning
and asked, so gently,
move me. touch me. i am thirsty
and I moved and touched and drank
because for all I know, it knows better than me
every cell aches to be itself and everyone at once
who knew.
every drop of sweat, taste of blood, rush of pain
sends a new wisdom
embeds a new memory
it knows better than me
its sweetness and its power
its beauty and its pain
its love and its anger, both deep
and now it wants me to speak.
