Sea Anemone
A sea anemone contracts at danger
Shuts out intimacy, isolates
Receptive circuits shut down
Shields from enemy’s harm
Shut out from intimacy, isolated
Her eyes, ears, mouth, nose, fingers
Protect from hostile attacks
Separate from physical surroundings
Her eyes, ears, mouth, nose, fingers
Close to sensations beyond the self
Separate from physical surroundings
Numb the sentient feelers
Closed to sensations beyond the self
Encapsulated, she suffers detachment
Numb are the sentient feelers
Receptors of love, trust, emotion
Encapsulated, she suffers detachment
Withdraws from life’s rough touches
A Sea anemone contracts at danger
Shielded from enemy’s harm
