Sopa de Hueso

I carry grief in my bones
Angry red and resigned yellow cells create healing in the marrow
Boil my bones and pain will seep out of its simmered confines
Leach out of the calcified webbing and create radiant strength
Angry red and resigned yellow cells create healing in the marrow
Drink deeply of the broth and you will sleep better, love longer, choose better
Calcified webbing yields, creates radiant strength
Drink deeply of the broth and you will sleep better, love longer, choose better
I carry grief in my bones
Ancestral sorrow woven into my joints
Boil my bones and pain will seep out of its simmered confines
