Friday Flash 55 - "The Ascetic Body"

Bending, twisting

her skin moist with sweat

muscles swelling with intensity

Perched and balanced

breathing slow and rhythmic

sometimes, fast and ragged

Solid and fierce, yet supple

Bracing through the ground, then shifting

Each position testing

She stops resisting only to submit

Focused with her power

mind and body surrender

To the peaceful place within

Go see Mr. G if you'd like to play
(he knowsitall and counts 'em all too!)
