A Great Fall

I am ashamed to fall

Curled up in a ball

Tongue sticking like some drawl

Eyes avoiding my sprawl

I am afraid to fall

Of releasing it all

This dark burden to haul

Till I’m cast in a pall

I am destined to fall

To lose this inner call

An existential brawl

That there’s no way to stall

View fullsize

I will accept my fall

Does it hurt overall?

If/when I hit this wall

Will there be fireball(s)?

I will embrace my fall

So that life may install

A new star to enthrall

Universal catchall

I am one with my fall

Peace and joy wherewithal

Integrity recall

Words to never forestall
