the twitching of a muscle

just before things start to move

the fine hairs that start to bristle

in the changing of a mood

the sparkling of an eye

in the instant light’s reflected

the inability to fight

the body’s need to be protected

in every inch beneath the skin

a nerve communicating process

before movement even begins

a reaction is already planned for adjust

we rarely have to think about it

it falls in line, life’s dominos

naturally created and self reliant

from our head down to our toes
