Poem #5: Body
#5 of Poetry
This poem is about the body as a soul, how it moves physically and emotionally in life.
Body
To breathe, to suck, to blow
To think, to mind, to know
To touch, to move, to feel
To close, to shut, to seal
To fly, to run, to walk
To say, to shout, to talk
To cry, to grieve, to sob
To take, to steal, to rob
To crave, to want, to need
To taste, to eat, to feed
To jump, to rise, to fall
To try, to fail, to crawl
To train, to learn, to gain
To hurt, to hit, to maim
To see, to sight, to scry
To live, to love, to die.
