The Longing of the Flesh


Every call of the flesh
Is a call of the spirit
In every consummation of longing
There's a transcendence
Transcendence of ego
Transcendence of the world
Exisiting beyond space-time
In that sweet spot of ecstasy
Only to be thrown back
Into flesh on bone
The longing of the flesh
Is a longing for the spirit
And this is the task before us
To find the spirit
Amidst the pull and push of the flesh.
