Poised Too Long On The Edge



_____

Born This Day in 1824

At times I stumble upon a poem that I can understand, one that (inexplicably) somehow moves me, and when I do an undeniable compulsion rises within me to share it with others -- such as the one below written by Christopher Logue:

Come to the edge.
We might fall.
Come to the edge.
It's too high!
COME TO THE EDGE!
And they came,
and he pushed,
and they flew.
--Christopher Logue

Is himself the enemy! "
