Synonyms for Falling
Fall is coming
A maple leaf descends
anonymous
like a soul baring itself
on public forums
identified only by a username
and the ironic grin
of a cartoon avatar
plummeting into
the abyss of cyberspace
as night approaches
Fear of Heights
Do not invite me for a magic carpet ride
No intricately embroidered Oriental rug
or Egyptian prince
would pique my interest to partake in such a feat
I’d shut my eyes tight
sweaty hands gripping tasseled fringes
I'd have a heart attack
before a glimpse of the view below
So if you have tickets for two
Count me out of it
Find another princess-to-be
