Yesterday every muscle screamed
STOP!
At home my tired body sunk into deep sleep
No dreams.
Morning dawned gray and cool
Muscles protesting more quietly.
Deep tissue massage gentled the knots apart
And it was good.
Finding an afternoon sunspot,
I finally relax.
“All we actually have is our body and its muscles
that allow us to be under our own power.”
