The Dark Abyss
by
Heather Prudence Davis
Sometimes
whether in motion
or stillness
I just slip
and fall off
into negative land.
Then one slip
I noticed the impact
wasn't as adamant.
Stumbling to my feet
I gathered some senses
and brushed myself off
with less effort that time.
From then on, the quicker I
brushed myself off,
the less I even slipped.
