Mid Week Nourishment

"We carry a terrible wound: alienation from our embodied life.
"Your flesh shall become a great poem."
                                                                                         Walt Whitman

This week be aware of your precious human body. Nourish your body by giving it fresh food and ample rest. Remember that you won't always have a body to care for.

What do you think Whitman means when he says your flesh will become a great poem? If you feel inspired, write a poem for the man in the picture above.

Thanks for exploring the mystery - Nicky Mendenhall
