There comes a time when
we have to do it
no matter
Life is too big too small
to consider
we fight the dying flame
lines forming maps
across once flawless skin
sheer from pure naivety
the not knowing
everything seems smooth
it's only after that we
learn
have the 'aha' moment
that the bumps are either
worth it or not
we can play that hand out
with a smile or not
that's all
the snake was saying in
that
pre-dawn
long long hiss.
