writing on the wall

how can I write

about climbing?

my body moves up 

my pen moves down

over the rock

over the page


the regular pauses 

are the same

searching for a handhold

the right word

a crack to place protection

a feeling to hold my heart


the blank rock

the empty page

the line of weakness

the easier way


the easiest way is

not do it at all

not delve your thoughts

not risk a fall


that leads nowhere

we learn nothing new

fear cannot be conquered

but can teach us something true
