I poke and prod: A poem

As we continue this months theme, Spirituality of Imperfection, enjoy this beautiful poem by Talitha Fraser —

I poke and prod
prod and poke
inside and out
my blemishes and wounds
scarred recovery and discovery
of what is yet untouched.
The markers of pain are the
milestones of my journey to wholeness
it is in my breaking I am made.
