Plunge

Plunge

Contorted, knees bent, gritted teeth,
Like a pellet, I descend.
Notes of significance caress and provoke,
Steam up my eyes with the moistness of romance.
In my chest a cavity drips and leaks,
Through my tightly buttoned, starched shirt.

I take the photos, in their diversity,
The pages of words to be glossed, not absorbed
The Night,
Is unfolded gently from the box of treasured memories

I form a paper chain,
And suspend it between two precarious ledges,
Above the embers of lust and the piranhas of doubt…

A desperate gale-force wind rips,
Link by link,
My fragile creation.
