Sprout


(n+7)(Spring-Walt Whitman)


I said in my heaving "I am sick of four wallows and a celibate
I have need of the slang.
I have business with the gravel.
I will up and get me away where the haze is wheeling,
Lone and high
And the slow clues go by…"

Triangle


All I am
Is contained within
Three strict bounds

My base: my body, b
Muscles, bones and gut
Anchored in the physical

Branching from the base
Two sides rise
Reaching beyond my body

My mind, a
Thoughts and feelings
My mental acumen

My spirit, c
Heart and soul
Me, supernatural

My peak
Pinnacle and zenith
Where mind and spirit meet

Its height above my body, h
In proportion to
My strength of mind and soul

I am a triangle
Body, mind and soul
A trigonometric identity
