the grand [interruption]

divert your eyes, you look down 

walk softly, preserve the path

magnify your presence, softness on your check 

hands locked, a gust sweeps your gaze

space reflected, deep, quiet, calm

stretch connection, above to below

switchbacks, make it easier

altitude gained, down to go up, lost 

perception one direction, reverse the other 

placeholder for a new beginning

divert your eyes, you look up

walk intently, dig your heels 

strength rooted, big breath 

hands locked, your scream echoes 

you aren’t dead yet, big crow 

memorize the soil smell, shadow

path reflects an endless ripple

interruption melds to interpretation

grand, life of water
