Much easier to see
Watch me and witness the changes
Place a hand on my back, or shoulder or belly
Feel the movement - opening
Sense the warmth
Hear the crunch or pop
See the fire in my eyes.
I came for exercise
Found community
Received a gift to:
Study my body
Soften my heart
Heal my mind
Discover the spiritual
Soothe my wounds.
Spiral up, spiral down
Between terror and joy
Taoist Tai Chi
of the body
For all of me.
