Finally!
The earth beneath my back
Juts upwards --
I ascend to the stars
On this new-made mountain.
I am dizzy, elated
With realizing
That any way would work
After all.
So perplexed I was
By abstractions
And acrobatics,
When all I needed
Was passion for the sky,
Desire for the stars,
And heart for this
Crumbling,
Breaking
Ground.
