Written for "EXPRESS IT IN EIGHT " , topic: Image of stairs (I've been fighting myself to return to active writing, this photo brought to mind my hesitance and why) Before me stands a cold gray stair And I wonder in silence as I star What lies above, hope or despair? I long to see, and I know I must. It may be fortune or I may go bust. My legs are stiff like a thing of rust. So, I turn my back and I walk away Leaving these steps for another day...

I love that mysterious Big Foot Yeah, he's a pretty nice guy But a bit mischievous at nightfall See, he's also very timid and shy He visited me while out camping Standing silent in shadows unseen Just waiting for me to walk off So he could pilfer hotdogs and beans!
