16 Shades of Gray

L.B. Sedlacek

Talentless life forms
dangling,
hanging,
upon a precipice
as if bound for glory.

Failing,
flailing,
screaming for help
are the only events transpiring
to make yours an interesting story.

There’s no need
for bullhorns,
or microphones
as your soft words echo
off the sheer walls of the quarry.

Your rope chaffing,
your grip slipping,
hooks snapping,
belts breaking,
your mid-life crisis has just become gory.
