oxygen tumbling through wind pipes and into hollow lungs / red blood cycling through a never-ending circuit / muscle beating against ribs vigorously / nerves screaming at the slightest sensation / bones supporting fragile structure / stomach consuming tirelessly / arteries tenderly cradling life in the form of color / skin stretching and pulling to keep everything contained / tongue performing acrobatics to produce sounds / eyes perceiving beauty and criticizing it / teeth shining to represent joy / hair twisting and winding whichever way fingers guide it / soul sparkling and dancing.
to exist is really indescribable.
