descend the

spiral staircase

lost at

every

bend

and still

we will not

know

at the end

of this

where we have

been

on a slope

a slide

by my side

we’re one slip

away

from

ending it

the one place

we were

going

take it

there are

pinwheels

spinning

on each tip

of your

eye lashes

oh

they’re getting

faster now

and

that is how

we know we are

inching

and itching

to make it

if we hurry

we may

make it

by morning
