My blessed scarf
Around my neck so tight
In colours beautiful
And so bright and my scarf
Flipped and it swirled a
Wintertime comfort to star
And it keeps me warm
From the cold chill of the night.

the brain’s a butcher
slicing futures
before they breathe.

I stood
on the edge
measuring wind,
timing possibilities
til courage turned to doubt.

but the scream inside me
it didn’t care
about logic
maps
or bruises.

it wanted fall.
it wanted now.

so I shut the noise.
I leapt.

and in the wreckless air
found
I could burn
without dying.

found
the unknown
had teeth
but smiled.

In the unknown
I found
comfort.
