the climber

Be courteous
to those you pass,
climbing around and
over them

in rung
by rung reach,
grasp, pull, hitch,
haul. Since
from
where they
sit tight, the fall
is a bitch, and the view
is nice, once you're

out of it.

It wouldn't take much
with you clambering by
all limbs akimbo and
eyes on the sky, as
they sit clung
tight

on the rung
they're on

for them to do
something you
can't call wrong.
