Spelunking 3

standing before
me more a sink
hole or an
orifice of
sorts

reportedly to be
tightly deep
that was
what
i

came for more
then explore
but to but
heads
with

that which was
said to be a
new door
toward
a

natural expression
of a depression
of one that one 
might want
again and

more so dropping
a plum line of
weight so
waiting
to tell

how deep was this
well while sweat
beading my
forehead
said

though tight to fit
it was well
worth the
worth of
this

and so slowly entered
descending as a
dissenter as
pleasure 
was

after all
what i was
uncovering what
i always wanted to
do to love and discover

A big THANKS Maureen. Reading this while sort of waking. Actually I wake to take my morning pill which makes me sleep. C'est la vie.
