Have you ever
Fallen,
Up,
The stairs?
It’s an interesting
Phenomenon
That’s sure to leave
You wondering
Up from
Down.
A staircase is meant to be a
Fall
Or
A
Climb
Depending on the way
You see the world.
Are you rising up
Or steamrolling
Down?
Heat rises,
Cold
Lingers,
But what would a climb be
Without
Nimble
Fingers?
Have you ever fallen
Down
To
All
Fours,
Pawing your way
Up a staircase
In a way
A beast
Of the jungle
Would
Do?
I know I did,
And it was quite a
Scenery
To
View.
The railings keep you
Safe,
But just as training wheels
Come off,
The railing
Is not necessary
But cautions
Caution.
A staircase could be a
Case
To
Stare at,
But it’s a method
To madness.
Beneath the staircase
Lies
Parts
Unknown.
Above the
Staircase
Lies the beanstalk
We’re
Going
To
Grow.
A staircase
Is for climbing,
But isn’t it just the same,
For
Falling?
Fall and
Feel,
But it’s not
Pain,
But your brain
Telling you
It’s ok.
A tumble
Won’t ruin the
Day.
Pick up
Your
Feet,
Climb another
Stair,
But don’t stop to
Stare,
Because you’ll
Make the line behind you
Screech and
Pull your
Hair.
Smile and march,
Live and lunge,
Love and learn,
Stare and take
Another
Step
To climb,
Yet
Another
Stair.
Patience,
Young one,
Before you know it,
You’ll be there.
