Every Life Matters
Heart beats
chest breathes
diaphragms expand
eyelashes blink
muscles stretch
mind thinks ;
cartilage contracts
glands swell
lips quiver
sinew syncopate
skin, spine, senses shudder
tongue tastes
ears echo and resound
bones break
bodies bleed
breasts ache;
life begins
living is short
time is long
live it well
existence is
everything
that matters..
