"if you're gonna fall,
fall hard, fall fast,
but remember the descent,
remember the hole that invites you in,
remember the name of your fall,
call it out repeatedly as oblivion swallows you whole.
if you're gonna fall,
fall in a way that the silence in the depths resounds in your ear,
fall because you can get back up,
crawl and claw your way back up,
leave your mark on the line.
fall."
-k.v.
