Incline
The image from my guides
Was of a steep slope
I am climbing
Intense but short
Now
After a few days
I am nearing the top
I feel a little like that
Wearing out.
A little hard to breathe
Slight sore throat
Pain in my ankles and hips
Flushed with heat.
My mind looks for
Another story
I’m detoxing
I’m getting a cold
I’m allergic to fall
My shoes are wrong
I can see validity
In all of those other
Options
But
It just helps my heart
To go with the story
I was given
I’ll still try on
Some different shoes
And take my supplements
They would help
On my hike up
Anyway
