Literature Text

As I climb, the branches thin
Shall I step out on this limb?

If the ground is still below
If, and only if, you know

What's this pouring down my cheek?
Salty, sad; I've sprung a leak.  

Broken, thrown, windswept and tossed
I fought gravity and lost.  
Inspired by a friend.

That poem, as good as it is, is sad.
I almost sprung a leak reading it.

It's really good, though.
