Now that I've lived in my body
for hundreds of years,
now
that I know the cycle of my personalities,
now
that I know the journey from my spine to foot,
and traverse it regularly,
relieved by regularities,
and pestered by the places of pain and imperfection,
Now that I know
unequivocally that
No
One
Wins,
and no one loses,
and
that you, on your morning jog,
and I, walking my head to clarity,
that we, working repetitively
just to be here now,
well,
now
what is there to do but be grateful
that the earth too works repetitively
to make our nows
Eden, if we let them be.
