An overwhelming pressure descends
and I fall into a hole, deeper than
before but darker still worry
drips from the damp wall
of the well that I dug
for myself sitting
in a puddle
crying
h2o
salt

Oh, most excellent! I think I’ve been in a similar hole a time or two. GREAT poem!

Thanks, Calen. I wish the holes would be filled in with cement though, so I wouldn’t have these moments at all.

Just don’t break your damn leg stepping in one of the LITTLE holes! You don’t need that on top of everything else!

Do creaky knees count? I feel like I’ve been running, my knees ache. Ever follow a toddler up and down the stairs 10 times. This is so getting old. Time to teacher her the follow the cat around the house circuit.
