Take a step
Breathe
Take a step
Off the edge
Fall free into the air
Nothing is up
Nothing is down
Floating in freefall
Wind meanders by
Your body speeds
To somewhere
But the mind is behind
The air has stopped now
Were you in distress?
Or did you imagine that?
Either way, you’re finished now
Falling ends at the bottom
Of the endless nether
The ground creeps up
Then your body assaults it
Laying on the concrete
Waking from a dream
Brush yourself off
And take a step off the edge
