the path leading here -

treacherous.
steep.
less than more
lived.
unlived.
survived.
halfway there,
we're the eye of storms.
things are calm -
here.
all around, things
whirl.
fly.
are annihilated.
they say
grass is greener -
there.
the other side.
though green, it's
unearthed.
ungrounded.
unmade.
so i choose my side.
here.
no grass, dirt.
but grounded.

i know where i stand.
do you.
