Hamstrings
A philosophy
The back of the body
Starts with the feet.
Some will feel the hamstring in their calf
Rather than their thighs.
Usually more mobile,
Toe walkers,
Ankle lockers.
Some will feel the pain
In their lower back
It’s nearly always the hamstrings.
Toe to the face,
Heels to the sky,
Drop your hip,
Breath into the belly
And wait.
This thick chunk of human
Anatomy will take awhile
As it struggles and fights me,
Or you,
Depends on how you see it.
The power house of ground force
And forward momentum
Is all part of your past.
The posterior chain,
All that comes next is powered
By what fires behind us.
Our past dictates our future.
Our patience determines our
Comfort.


The interconnectedness of the human mind, body and spirit is so beautifully portrayed here , in an altogether unique way. Love it
