Free Fall
Snap!
He looked up.
"Oh, snap."
From flight
to grind
High joy
to base fear
So fast
So strange
the way
the best and worst of
things can be
so close
like that.
Just one snap
or step
or sneeze
or breeze
is all it takes
to take you
from the midst
of one,
smack
to the next--
Or did you do that?
Now the Earth, She knows
the highs and lows;
they’re meant to be linked by much.
The mountain peak
knows lots of weeds
and rocks
and sand
and such
