Atlas no longer

My shoulders ache

The crane of my neck

A constant agony

That send hammers to my brain

Vibrating through every nerve

-

My hands blister

From the grip tightened

On the near impossible

Tightening with each slipping second

-

Eyes meet and a sigh

It slips out of my grasp

I stand tall and feel the crack

And snap as limbs move again

Blood and sinew become

Limber and useful

-

The globe rolls away

And I smile
