[untitled 6/5/10]

hideous scabs
shaved knees bumping
stubble threatening the image

perilous to keep distance
so close

i tread the line of what i am
and what i want to be with

i explore the depths of the cavern
that no one else seems to probe

i am a sure-footed wanderer
but we all know that bravery
is not admitting when you're scared.
