+link in the chain of jealousy,
+i envy you, you envy them, they envy me.
+fetters, bind us together. i will make it,
+you dragged along behind me,
+the one in front is ready to hinder,
+trip me up, in this way
+there is nowhere to go, together
+a damp, moist cave can be comfortable,
+warm. take a rock and crack yourself
+free. now shoot through the keyholes,
+keyhole after keyhole after keyhole--
+one shot, don't miss!
+finding oneself in hope,
+less darkness, now vadose passages
+till the creek is reached, what
+caused those unexplained floods.
+
+at times the only way forward is
+formed through fault lines, rifts.
+each one you take carries
+an existential risk.
+the hole i once fell through
+still exists.
+somebody should really fix it up,
+i could not stand another who missed.
