"I’ve walked the crackled ground

of anger; have seen

from the burning bridge

of my arrogant eyes."

Such a great line - this held me.

I’ve been wanting to come and sit with this poem since you shared it this weekend. So good Zane.

‘How wide that way which leads

to wither; that way of willful perish.’

Incredible and convicting line!

That means a lot Rosa! Thank you so much for waiting for a good moment to read my work, I think that is perhaps the biggest compliment I could hope to receive.

I really love this. I love that you explore the possibility of you going either way. I think it captures the dangers of the one way and the beauties of the other very well. Thanks for sharing this.
