Poem:

It is better to see the inner moon Than always be eating with a spoon In your stomach leave some extra room If you maintain your frame You can sit with one pointed aim From this poem take some inspiration And crush the body’s hesitation. Why wait until another date Or it could just end up being too late. This poem ended when I ran out of time- no other reason. DS Poem June 15, 2018
