Going Down?

All good things come to an end
Standing on the edge of the precipice
Looking down into the void
Of creative oblivion
Too close
Distracted contemplation
Is a dangerous venture
Lose your sight
Lose your footing
It’s a long way for where
You intended to be
Once you start to fall
There is no stopping
Faster
Faster still
No slowing
Or coming back
From a misstep
Upon
The slippery slope
