Body and Soul

I saw a man,....
with half a Soul, 
half dead,
half alive,
half wanting,
the other half consuming
the drugs of pain,
yet resistance, avoids him,..
engorging.......
the Soul,  the plug of life.
The epitome of existence,
was being destroyed by,..
annoyance of life.
Desecration of the D.N.A. system!
Abuse of the vessel
that proves his existence.
His body,
Without your body,
what does the Soul 
plug into?
where does the Soul go?
once the body has 
been desecrated,
and left Soul less, 
how does it communicate
without the body?
how can the body 
communicate ................
without the Soul?
It took time to desecrate
the Soul and make it half.
it will take time to
awake the Soul, to it's 
original state.
Your Soul in your hands,
your Body it's Temple.
