poem of the day February 3 

If you dropped

into a body

from outer space

after a night

of cosmic dreaming

armed only with 

the roadmap

of human perfection

Knowing nothing

of the aches and pains

within the body

you jumped into

Even though it was 

your own body

The one you live in

Could you overcome

your familiar roads of suffering

to try the different 

less traveled path

of human perfection
