GB12 Summit

Verse to Self
single space
Summit
double space
Summits, in
whatever form,
are always an
upward climb,
pushing past,
in order
to awake.
double space
So plod I do,
step inside
of step
and come
to conclude
that my brain
and soul
are made for
movement,
the sea squirt
tells me so,
for when, in
its evolutionary
cycle, seeks to
rest, in a
stationary hold,
wastes no time
in proceeding,
to devour
its own brain,
whole.

No more
summits for
the squirt,
in the sea
as vast as
time, for it
trades the
quest of
unchartered
movement, for a
stationary home.
double space
The sea squirt,
signals a time
of choice,
to exercise
the freedom
to express
and climb
against the tide
or settle for
a “safe” space,
in order
to partake.
double space
When in ?,
I make a
solemn vow,
orchestrate a
forward thrust
and embrace that
which is a must.
triple space
