ONE

there is a delicate dance between
sanity and madness, hope and despair
living in a world of one.
there are no stars, no moon, sun
bound by phantom chains and bars of
our own imagination and troubled mind
when Reason fails, we fall to our knees in hope
that Faith will be our salvation.
It’s like dancing in the dark

I remember when I got hypothermia
and collapsed after puking up black
bile...No time to pray write a note
as I was falling over
slipping out it was just
Im going to die now
and they will find me
in the winter warm apartment
four days from now
or more..dang!
then Kee rash...

or the near being struck by
cars...wouldnt even get out
a "Oh shit"
maybe a bit of the O
before being thrown
down the street
from the forty five mile
an hour direct impact
Most of those end up
with head trauma

the slower endings
gotta be hard
and more to bear

I salute the bravery and
continued reporting
and very humanity
of this piece

Thank U very Much Joe!

Mr Esker!
