Idiot X'ing

I crossed the canyon,
You wouldn’t believe it.
I made the journey,
I actually did it.

It’s at my back now.

And me?

I’m bleeding,
D-Y-I-N-G’ing,
Oh my god,
I’m barely fucking surviving.

I’m crumpled over,
Exhausted and writhing.

You’re staring,
Glassy-eyed.

And you say,
Unsurprised.

“You,
My dear fool,
Are on the wrong side.”
