Upon a roof,
A potential leaper,
Held by the hand of his savior
In a fingerlock hold on humanity.
One dangles from the brickface,
The other hangs over the ledge.
Both facing the enmity of danger.
Locked in each other’s lives,
One prays for death,
The other holds on for life.
Both are one in the same,
Gemini, the signs of the twins;
Is one person of a dual nature
whose planet, the volatile Mercury
burns in both desires to live and die
Both hang and help.
And the one that is dropped
Is the one that was holding.
Leaving the one hoping to die,
Left alive, to cope with the meaning to this treason.
One dangles from the brickface, man, great line................
