careless missteps
carved out of wood,
cut like a wedge.
the stairs are ironically
hard to get used to.
they are a game;
you got to be careful,
balancing your way upwards.
in a slip,
a careless misstep,
you could fall
right back down
to the ground.
isn't it fun -
barely two meters tall
off of the mound.
yet an illusion that
scares our weak mind
oh so playfully,
a little challenge:
going up
up
up
up
to the top
the game will be
worth it.
