Beyond the Body

Bodies can be fragile, fickle things. 
Fearful of what the future may bring. 
A pretty face may be fine in bed
If behind the face, you know the head.

Thank you. It's all about feeling welcome, a difficult prospect when you don't know the head. I hate to compartmentalize it like this, but I think you know what I am trying to say.
