The body remembers everything,
even when the brain doesn’t,
you may wish this sting
simply wasn’t.
And, now that I bring it up,
the difference between
ought and want,
is the same thing
between must
and mustn’t.
With one tip of the cap,
you can get a little bit back.
When what you should do
has the power to slap you
sideways, as a matter of fact.
Trust the muscle memory
over your body,
and those bodies whose
instinctual response
to a situation or person,
you witness first hand,
though they speak not
the same language,
or draw water from
the same land.
The body knows what
it ought to do,
and what it ought not
to do.
