Inside ”Sometimes” by Kaya Quinn
Sometimes I can just not believe I am
Actually alive so I then think
Oh yeah! my toes I will try to move them
Then much occurs but just seems like a wink
Signal sent that operate those functions
Brains nerve center excites a motor nerve
Which sends electrical pulse to junctions...
That then send the pulse on its way with verve
Media is the message down the vine
The brain's nerve signal reaches the foots end
Sends plasma through vesicas in a line
That cause the muscle fibres to extend
At the end of my foot there is a glow
So what happens is I wiggle my toe
