examination

I hit the ground this morning and came up bruised
I'm exhausted from the journey down and I'd like to lay down to rest

I need sleep; rejuvenation after failure
A humbling experience,
to damage my pride
but my ego needed popping

I like being human, full of error
spontaneity
being illogical and stubbornly stupid
I climbed a mountain too tall and in my ambition

did not realize I set myself up
I needed this pain of bruising
Exhaustion after a marathon of climbing
chasing the sun
I now lie in a pool of water
where I can begin again
