the human body
has three hundred and fifty bones
when we are born
which fuse together
as we grow
to two hundred and six;
further simplifying
down to condensed calcium
and summated marrow,
growing our skeletons down
to simpler beings as we grow.
if only the human soul
was not the opposite;
*********** into
spreading stardust
particles so quickly that
we cannot put a simplified
finger on exactly who we are.
black & gold.
