this is a body
that is hated,
a body that betrays,
something ugly.
this is a body separate from its owner
this is what a body should never bethis is a body
that is loved,
a body that brings pleasure,
something lovely.
this is a body less separate than it used to be
this is exactly how a body should be-thoughts regarding one's body, a dichotomy
