The Body’s Wisdom
Drum circles,
Bodies undulating together,
Storytelling around a fire…
Healing was never meant to be
Solitary
Sedentary
Or cerebral
While the mind
Seeks to fix
Manage and control,
Endlessly chases its tail
With should’ves and could’ves,
Flip flops between blame
And shame
The body’s wisdom
Guides us to move
And release,
Weaves the personal
To the collective
And makes it
Universal
