One Way Thin

You're dancing at the edge of life,

Throwing up your hair and cutting

It away in strands that fall down

Into the fair of symetrical bulges,

But you shudder and push away,

The seductress that crawls your way,

Tilting head, lost in the normalcy of

The below, edging toward the edge of-

But you hover, this way is lost and

You flutter, plunging in your thoughts

Then a tooth loosens, a nail shatters,

A memory slips away, you're ascending

Far into the heavens, in thankful misery.
