CAUCASIAN TREE TOTEM

Big solid tree,
fascinating me,
standing at trunk base,
leafy inner hidden space,
wanting explore,
mysterious secret core,
no chance end sore,
climbing so high,
challenging NASA rocket guy.

Jumping to lowest branch,
climbing vertically advance,
going quick easy like trance,
hands feet body,
making safety connection,
confirming right direction,
suddenly top of tree,
naked with erection.

Lightning shock wind,
branches turning to pin,
throwing tree around,
commanding wild sound,
threatening dropping me ground,
rushing thoughts profound.

Branches before thick solid,
transform shiny sharp steel blades,
moving menacingly emotional haze,
continuing naked erect tree unstable,
wondering how long i'm able,
living Brothers Grimm fable.

Waking rumpled bed,
dream visuals crisp,
producing transient lisp,
trying come to grip,
relevance reality,
ultimate meaning finality.
