I perceive

Feet,
Knees,
Hips,
Spine,
Head.
The body in it's core.
Bones.

Heart,
Muscle,
Soft tissue,
Silk.

I am a tree
(Once a seed)
I am one of many trees.

Rooted to the earth whose center is made of fire.
I am fire, therefore.

I am a tree that grows,
Cries,
Laughs,
Tickles,
And loves.
Loves so dearly,
So tender.

Veins of water,
Blood,
and honey
flow inside me,
through me,
beyond me,
to the depths of our web,
to the sky,
ignites the stars so they expand,
explode,
rain upon us to create new life.

My life,
Your life,
Our life.

The world is on fire,
And breeds us to new beginnings.

The tree of love,
The tree of life.
