Corpus

Forgive it when it fails at first. Forgive
it when it fails again. Don't fight. Allow
your soul to know it doesn't fully live
here in this disappointing body. How
exquisite is your soul? Look at your kid,
too open and too bright to fit inside
her body, glowing with the thing you hid:
your light. Your inner light. You learned to hide
it when you learned to hate yourself. Who taught
you that? Try self-help books, try seminars,
try meditation--anything that ought
to give you back to you. You came from stars
and back to stars you'll go. And everything
between depends on you remembering.
