Song of Body
The world may appear as a ghost
asking silly questions: “Who are you?”
and “What are you doing?”
It's only the body you can trust.
Body knows its needs
and proceeds directly to fill them.
Its greatest chorus of song:
smooth working systems.
Song of Spirit
We all know the body breaks down
and can fail completely,
pain and death just before the dawn.
What then can anyone say?
Hope’s a young man's song.
When you're old and crippled,
any song is a song of spirit,
taught and learned through struggle.
Spirit's song, a product of soul,
is the stronger song.
