I can’t remember the last time I had faith enough
to lean on something without having misjudged, or misunderstood.
I can’t remember a time I was not the cause of the walls coming down,
railings shattering and shoulders breaking.
Am I one in a long sequence of actions and reactions?
The event of a fall and the consequential fall of something else.
Cause and effect. Action and reaction.
Am I one link in a chain reaction,
a chain linked only by being broken?
