Upon the Edge

She,
Climbed upon the wall
Pondered,
Upon into the yonder;
One step at a time,
a drop of sweat,
a second each-
Hope ticking within.
.

little of a parapet;
abundance of wires;
Barbed upon-
rinocheting thorns, sculpted.
Each footfall,
Shreiking of insanity.
.

Her scaffolding-
Averaged upon the hinge,
Refusing to halt.
The gale of hope shall straighten the sails.
One last imersion,
Piranhas and eggshells-
And there shall be the sun
At the end of the tunnel.
