Threshold.

I'm sitting at the edge of a rock
spinning

and watching as the threshold opens
into a meandering wave of
polarity

searching for a manner
in which to guide
the needle north

as it tumbles out of control
spinning

fixate now on familiarity
in this unfamiliar terrain

slide against the grains
that oppose you
digging further deeper downward

banging our heads together for
a mighty solution
that will alleviate
all these worries
cascading

a thin sliver
is all that separates
us

my fists are closed and ready
my feet firmly on the ground
waiting to pounce

a victory in sight
and defeat in the rear view
spinning

determined to break through
