Mrs. Nancy this is so true. No one seems to go with visceral gut instinct anymore, it all has to be so over analyzed. I love this poem. I also love how the band "TOOL" put this in the song "Lateralus" by saying "Over thinking, over analyzing, separates the body from the mind." So very true, and sad.
