Letter of Recommendation

Her I call a healer who recognizes toxicity in her environment
And resolves to protect herself and others accordingly

Her I call a healer who swims against the fierce current
Of conditioning of GPAs and rankings

Her I call a healer who remembers the truths
Learned in El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Honduras

Her I call a healer who remains unfazed
By future income, inflated status, and other monuments to ego

Her I call a healer who understands
That to care for the world is to care for herself

Her I call a healer who realizes
That to care for herself is to care for the world

Her I call a healer who honors the teachers
Who have shown her how to be still and how to move

Her I call a healer who seeks integration
Of the left and the right, the light and the shadow

Her I call a healer who knows
“Yoga is who she is”
