Pleasure
Keeps us on our toes
It helps us ground
In this world
What a great way
To inhabit this body
To live in pleasure
Enjoying the creation
Touch your skin
Feel the water
When you
Take a shower
Feel the humidity
Entering your nose
Feel how warm it feels
Inside of your bones
How would it be
If we were
To relate
To this body
As an outsider?
As if it is borrowed
As it we need to care for it
As if it is sacred
Something we don’t owe
Perhaps we will stop harming it
We will treat it better
Not overfeed it
Not undernourish it
We will keep it clean
We will keep it happy
To return it
Better than when we had it
Would you give it junk food
Would you give it cigarettes
Or would you give it
The best harvest in the garden?
The pleasure of anticipating
The taste of breakfast
The feeling after
A good sweat
Maybe just a thought
That makes you tremble
Something on the lines of:
How do I relate to life?
It is that simple
How are you planning your day
How are you maximising joy
How are you eating life
Feeling grounded
In yourself?
I’m gonna say no
No to that coffee
When it doesn’t feel right
No to that laziness
That it doesn’t align
Yes to that nap
To help me relax
Yes to that phone call
That tickles my back
