Body won't let you
by Elizabeth Challinor
Mind
I know the poem you want to write
But body won't let you
Not tonight
So
Surrender
Give up the fight
Go with the inexplicable flow of emotions
Let body's fears and tears be
Enjoy those moments of irony
Savour the power of passion
The pleasure of flirting with fantasy
Stop giving directions
Can't you hear the clouds laughing
Since when did water trickle in a straight line?
