You See (Taking a Break)
There is a certain urgency
in the scrambling for solid ground
with our little
bug legs and arms.
But we fall anyway;
all the way off
and onto scattered leaves and dirt;
like our eye sockets fill up when we die.
It's all okay, though,
because our stupid body mass
isn't even enough to kill us
when we hit the ground.

Haha, I've always seen myself (and most other people) as nervous, scrambling little things... <3 ^ ^'
Well, thank you again for your kind words, and I'll be sure to stop by and see what you've got to show!
