How Nature Punished the Body
Nature has a way of punishing the body,
if it's not well cared for.
The punishment is to the flesh but
an inconvenience to the dweller
within the flesh.
The body complains of pain and suffering,
as the dweller,
reflecting Itself as
high projects,
great purposes, and
noble inspirations.
As the body becomes ill,
Nature demolished it back to dust,
another imperfect reflection.
