The High

by  The Walrus

Word Count: 58
Summary: This one, I fling into the ether.




So much shared
Across the impossible
The intangible
Beings randomly colliding
Joining in
Choreographed formation

A perfect distillation
Combusting very much
Against convention
Leap-frogging with
Childlike surety
Entwined in
Unspoken destiny

Baiting dragons
With swaggering nonchalance
Formidable challenges
Heaven sent

The footsore feet
Feel sweet relief
As they release
Gravity
In pursuance
Of Life’s natural
Obsession-void
Addiction-void
High.
