desirability sideways step

the edge of acceptability
teasing out the rules
to fit fortune
fleeting chances
flighty saturdays
and the chance of a come down

dancing on the edge
of society
bending rules until just before they break
using them to swing
fly
leap
into just un-forbidden land

creeping on the edge
of inevitability
it always was
and is
and will be
as is written

the curse is blessed
the silent loud
a life unlived, unloved

crawling through thorns
of instability
escape worth the torture
friendship worth the burden
hardship
trials
lucky county
foods on the table

breathe in
breathe out

phone call’s a comin’
