Strength
(written a year ago)
If I put a marker on my back,
Pressed two layers deep, (Japanese "Kennin")
For Fortitude, strength, resilience…
Would it flow up my vertebrae
And permeate my flesh?
Could it remind me, center me,
Unify my soul?
I need iron in my veins,
Steel in my bones,
An adamantine will.
I would not feel pain
Or fear my mortality.
Lord, grant me fortitude,
Health, and self-control.
I want a powerful body.
I want a bionic soul.

Hey you write really well. How come no one is passing by your blog to read your lovley words
I get some hits, but not a lot of comments. If I had time to surf other blogs more it might bring more visitors, but I have to work.
