Chiseled

Living in the body
chiseled
I have come to
cherish every pore
every muscle
everything held
so taut
that I have left
nothing for my head to do.
Thoughts disappear
as cells celebrate
the throbbing of life
every moment.

Waves

Waves break and form
incessantly
unwaveringly
and I watch
transfixed
on their play
all by myself
taking in
their eternity

Masterpiece

 from DuMbI4_45.photosight.ru

Their life's ambition -
to make a masterpiece.
They look for inspiration
for that perfect match
of things, place and time.
Here I am, slowly
getting ready to merge
from the rock into
the quiet flow
and only momentarily
revealing the master's
deft work, piece by piece,
on my flesh
and spirit.

Pristine

I feel
nothing
should come between
me and pure joy;
my fullness has
this pristine quality
that I am the original
Eve when
there was no original
sin.

All of me

All of me
now available
for me;
I love the world
of you and me
but you may
take
only
what I give of
me;
no longer
will I
be bound
to the world
outside of me.
