Yours is the only body worth having
It's magnificence
With its scars and pains and asymmetries and imbalances and age and abilities
Too much X, too little Y, not enough Z
Your uniqueness written inklessly on this body
Breath by breath, take in goodness
Fill up your lungs, heart, belly
Plant the seeds and water daily
Until flowers burst forth
From your organs and wild roses spill from
Your eyes, ears, and mouth
It's not easy but you are worth it
