(Sur)Mountain’

The cosmic life lessonswere brutally learned.All of those sudden        drop offsand deep pitsand debilitating turns. Blood drawn whileslashing at thornsand tangled brambleto find my waythroughthe treacheryof thousandsof yesterdaysto get whereI am ultimatelyheaded to.That momentwhere I canfinally look outfrom ascensionand surveythe panoramic,full view… Never would I evertrade wisdomfor youth. I choose to lose oxygenfrom the altitudeof the highest possible path. There is no turning around.There is no going back. By Jamadhi Verse, ©2024See more of Jamadhi Verse’s Poetry here.
