Babies Skin

I see my body in parts
Hands legs arms and
So on.

Can I see it any
Other way?

It’s a body
That’s a thing part of a
Species that as a
Whole I suppose is the
Animal part of living
Things and again so on
Living things are part
Of a world that’s
Active and spinning
Around a burning sun
That lights the wing of
A galaxy that spins in
A cluster of burning
Lights that expand like
Elastic and reminds
Me of the suppleness
Of a babies skin!
