The Cusp

The Cusp

October 25, 2024

I am at that point in my life

That no matter what direction I look

I am looking down

I currently reside on that precipice

Known as the cusp

I adore this locale

Higher than I have ever been before

Precariously balanced

Pivotable 360 degrees

All eyes are on me this day

But, I cannot remain in this pose forever

I cannot remain indecisive for long

I am adorned with the accoutrements of choice

Spectated by guests who expect more than a ceremony

They expect a decision

Whatever I do decide

Will lead to other hills to climb

But I will never reside

Here again

My one and only cusp in this life
