Stairway simply misunderstood as I mounted the stairs climbing the steps to nowhere simply, simply me~~I declare! the misfortune of the stairs which lead to anywhere we could imagine mounting climbing, climbing up~~I was there! as quickly as I came, I descended the misfortune of the landing the banister was unsure the steps were uneven quickly, quickly down~~I fall! reaching out for your hand to break my fall, to hold me there would lead to mounting step by step we�d embrace holding, holding on~~We entwine! the imaginings of a great ascent we mount the stairs to anywhere taking them one by one wondering where we�d arrive climbing, climbing up~~We arise! the misfortune of climbing learning how to fail gracefully no counting the flights falling, falling down~~I fall! simply misunderstood as I would climb no more climbing wasn�t an embrace falling wasn�t chaste Yet! I fail, fail, fail you! as I would mount no more quickly, quickly down~~ I fall! � 2003 CJ Clark All Rights Reserved
