Chasm of Doubt

Tension surges

like a draw-bride emerging

over a chasm of doubt,

foreboding the figurative,

"just figure it out"

Left right at a crossroad

with no road to cross

across from a cross

kneeling atop layers of prayer

peeling away

the sky-ceiling fading

sealing a way

reality unreal in comparison.

real expectations expected

unused to the ruse

of success

cast into a chasm of doubt

foreboding the figurative,

"just figure it out"
