Lachesism

The world falls away around me,
and in that moment of destruction
I am free.

I plunge forward,
shaking with velocity,
as my energy potential
is unleashed at last.

And I jet through the night
to the thunderous soundtrack
of hammering heartbeats
and screaming skies.

I discard the veneer of civilization,
and crash into an unknown world
as life’s little compromises drop away,
and the frontier hits my backyard.
