A Lark of Exaltation


A weighty world’s upon my back

Frigid nights, shades of black

Paths all upward, no end in sight

Scorching days, blinding bright

 

Blistered hands can scream no more

In search of peaks with rains to cure

Inspiration awaits, so climb I must

For the daily quench of a poets lust
