beyond

if you were
  to stand on the edge
of the beyond

  would we honestly
consider routine
to be a favorable substitute
 to the untouched?

 vigorous sin –
the favorite past-time
in the wild
               is what we
     have left
 to keep us reasonably sane

if I were
  to walk along
the edge

would we
 search for the subtle vices
unknown to man
   to keep up
the appearance  
     of satisfaction?

fog –
the undeniable evidence
    of change
 and time passing by
isolates and heals

if we were to
 race each other
to the bottom
     of the beyond

would we come
  back?
