Bruce Claude Poet Rhyme

The Cliff of Everything

I climbed the heights of the world
and it took me years.
The peak is not so far away now
I am seized with excitement and fear.

All my life,desiring to grasp this view
at the top of the world
this privilege, secured for the few
is now mine own to hold.

My steady breath distorted
by this altitude.
But life is all but complete
this is my moment to prove.

What i have sacrificed
to quench my thirst of knowledge
I ventured to infinity
and found this mount of all earthly heritage.

Extracted wealth from the altered perspectives
of secluded masses and endeavors introvert.
The gathering of information is fulfilled
True completion of life leads to wisdom stricken rebirth.

So here i am at the pinnacle of lively hood.
Observing beneath the common,that i was.
Though through ambiguity or curiosity
i move further to take a step in thin air.
