count on

wisps of hair
across a pale face
in the right direction
and just keep on walking
out to the edge
maybe best to throw myself
to the mercy of whatever
situation ensues
pursuing the inevitable
truth will be exposed
with dry skin hands
watching the page bleed
scratch it with this thought
flat back and waiting
sirens sound and brakes screech
the sun gives hope though
tomorrow is too far away
to be counted on…
