we’re told it’s all in inside job
but that began somewhere
long before the inside was an awareness
we choose
they say this body life
soul scripting the form with signatured
agreement
does this imply the healing is sure
because when then if so does the body give up its tight grip
ceasing the turn unbeknownst
toward fostering growth
learning the lesson again
inside shame is a kernel of wisdom
it is peeled to reveal the
wise elder
no matter the age
emerge
