At the Top
The steep angle of the slab
sends my stomach in somersaults.
The long distance to the ground
overcomes logic and I briefly forget
this tether at my waist marries me
to this ledge so that I may take in these spires
surrounding me.
Raven’s eye view over the vast expanse of
rocks pushed upward:
sharp stones punctuating the heart of everything that is.
