The fall

"calm your mind," I said,
take a deep breath."
but the words kept tumbling
anyway
falling
haphazardly
jostling for space
tripping over
each other
as I stood
willing myself blind
blind to the hate
the killings
the rage
(why are people
so angry nowadays?)
as I tipped
myself over...
falling
off the edge
of the world.
