gust

Nothing more than dust, unsettled
Upon the earth and made solid flesh
I stand to run against wind
Although fear, steadfast, holds me untrue

It is not the failure that lurks at my back,
It is the uncertainty that remains by my side

Ever present, omnivorous succubus of doubt

The path has never altered,
The course has repositioned all too frequently

Set not the dust to breeze, for wind imposes its will
