The crab
rips off its claw
when it no longer works
and grows a new one
back to its normal size
like nothing ever happened.

When my cells locate
something toxic inside me,
they automatically
remove it.

It’s nature’s law that I
release.
Follow my body’s impulse
to cut out what is unhealthy
to leave space and allow for
the healthy to grow.

“Release.” – bem
