The Confession

still they fall…

The Confession

When I begin
a new poem
I am not
sure
of where
it will go

since I am
quite literally
falling off
a mountain
so to speak

as the letters
and words
fall from the top
and
end up
on the bottom
of the page

sometimes
with little
sense to be made
of the effort
or the exercise
no matter
the depth of thought
or the strength of
conviction

still they fall
with no hope
of stopping
until
the end of the page
is in sight

and I can
once more
find a bit
of respite
from the
effort.
