Cleanse Without a Knife

My body's on screen
The see through of me
And I'm clean

Never felt so free

My hearts a machine
My lungs make me breath 
Their function is seen

The picture of health was my dream

I stand here and work
My glowing metalurg 
My magic is out
On a truck and then a plane
All around your world

Health's our life 
We work it right
Crystal clear
Like the sun in all its might

The rainbows shine
After rains 
We strive
To make you smile
We have actively 
enhanced a life

We tare atoms apart
We radiate from the past
Cleanse without a knife
Actively enhancing life

Make it count 
Think it safe
Make it count 
Watch your way
Stay a hand
In the way
Of cancer 
Everyday

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.
