Tantra



 Press self together into compressed pact of self-love
Hands meld together into flesh-colored hand-cuffs
The hand that holds your hand is your hand
It is re-aligning the lifelines of proximal palms
Getting reacquainted with own body in the flesh grinding psalm

In this way—skin becomes tantra, body of teachings
Sweat the mantra through your pores:
“It is not healthy to hate yourself.”
“It is not healthy to hate yourself.”
“It is not healthy to hate yourself.”
“It is not healthy to hate yourself.”

Repeat five times a day
While bending self back into shape
Spine, fits, skull, sits crown.
You are so perfect.
