Inside myself
finding cliff edge
feeling sharp break
between known and unknown
It is safe over here
why would I go there?
her smile pulls me
dammit
why is this so hard?
I step into destiny
plunge downward
hurtling
fast
as

free falling
kinda like flying
except for
the landing

Sometimes the landing is soft, if you land at all.
Indeed
I’ve known this feeling too.
Really? So how does it end?
My butt hurt after the landing.
Oh alright then! something to look forward to!
haaa @ M. Weebles… I love the design of this piece. Excellent and very clever as usual. Now jump ..maybe you’ll sprout some wings
and thank you for planting that damn Tom Petty song in my head..grrr
There is a Tom Petty song about jumping? I thought that was the Pointer Sisters
funny funny man
Just trying to switch songs – and thanks unfettered. I actually had not thought of that Tom song and now I keep hearing the chorus in my head! Grrrr is right….
ewww ear worm! ear worm! make it stop
laughing… see that is what you get for being a wise ass
I love visual poetry. Excellent idea to present “gravity” like this.
I like your opening:
“Inside myself
finding cliff edge”
And closing:
“except for
the landing”
Thanks – always enjoy your comments since your words help me find focus.
