Premium Member Physical Body Rest At Death -

The heartbeats always and never stops It just takes a breath aside It sleeps at night Body in death you rest Body still you become intangible , your soul lives on


Premium Member Life Is Like a Breeze-

TANKA
Life is like
Life is like a breeze
it flows and funnels flies free
yet tangible not seen
while in its midst the solemn
solid physical body

Curiosity

With each step I take into the forest of unknown
The more I become free
My true motives revealed
My inner thoughts voiced
My deepest fears vanished
My darkest secrets obliterated
I am no longer my self
My physical body is gone,
But my soul is healed

Poetry Conceived In Poem

Letters are skinned
in the memory
by whose hands
they work with them...
even versions
from the folds of the soul....
tear the physical body
through the portals of feelings
housed in the recondite...
So they practice all the time
to give birth to life poem... !

Premium Member Foul Play

Dear Rapist why? Preying on another’s 
  person’s trust. Rape of one’s self-esteem
  Rape of one’s mind, and one’s physical body
  and soul. Carnal abuse to conquer, to defeat
 to tame?
  These ptsd’s often lingers in one’s psyche.

   Dear Rapist tell me why? Were you once the
    victim of forcible violation.

With the Moon On Her Face

She wrote them on Wednesday
when she was alone
  eating her jellybeans
there by the phone

  She mailed them on Thursday
before she served tea
she looked out her window
with nothing to see

   Celestial bodies
cast shadows in space
she went to her room
with the moon on her face

  Hugging the Earth
spinning round and around
only her physical body
was bound.

Soul different than Heart

Soul can heal itself
Heart just shatters
look into my eyes
you see my soul

they do not compare
but are often correlated
Heart antithesis to Soul
Heart pumping loudly gross

Soul defines your being
Heart fuels physical body
comparing them is disgraceful
this discrepancy hurts Soul

Soul forms beauty
Soul move onto life
Heart disposable with body
Soul different than Heart

Premium Member Spirited NAKEDNESS-

Her spirit was naked Her sight sachet the wind Was her covering Her lips were chap She blew a kiss Her mouth tasted the leaf Leaves on the tree The wind came and covering her The clouds overlooked and covered her Every raindrop that fell from third heaven Wet her physical body You see she clothes in God And she could never be naked

Like Attracts Like

you are born human into a physical body 
        imbedded and surrounded 
by infinite and complex 
       energy structures 

held together by the 
        toroidal flow 
                of electromagnetism 
designed by the universe for your learning 
           
use it to continually attract and express 
      the best versions of yourself 
become a magnetic personality
       that uplifts others 
      
remember! 
      like attracts like

Body Dying - Mind Suffering

The body suffers a wound
May bruise and bleed
Then it will heal
Leaving a scar on the flesh

The mind suffers trauma
A cause to sob and cry
Then it will heal 
Leaving a memory in the head

The physical body suffers a fatal wound
It may suffer greatly or not at all
And the body will die

The mind suffers the worst possible trauma
It may go crazy for all to see or suffer internally
But the body will not die  

Physical wounds can bring the end
Mental wounds can only bring agony
