Losing My Edge Poem by Kyle Schlicher

Losing My Edge



eyes squinting to focus
on the out of focused past

slower comes the reaction

messages from the brain
relay danger signs crawling

inching closer

caution blends in the crowded cavity
until it becomes entangled

reflexes refuse warning signals

take the lower road to safety
trespassing into known situations

the need to touch the sharpness is dying
