Drunk off delusion- or youth or the fantasy they spoon fed us from birth Even in the cynical world of poetry, and the bildungsroman novels they imposed on us in high school- I believed that believing was enough Call it naiveté, to have known the flaws and still jumped towards your good without a life line, or a hope I am free falling into an unknown abyss trusting what I know to be concrete to catch my fall

Achilles Heel
Drunk off delusion- or youth or the fantasy they spoon fed us from birth Even in the cynical world of poetry, and the bildungsroman novels they imposed on us in high school- I believed that believing was enough Call it naiveté, to have known the flaws and still jumped towards your good without a life line, or a hope I am free falling into an unknown abyss trusting what I know to be concrete to catch my fall
