2 am Shortcut Through The Forest

2 am Shortcut Through The Forest

Dizzying darkness closing in
All I can make out are 
Massive redwood giants with
Thick fern laden stocks
Stretching endlessly up
High fiving the stars
On the this dark night
Only they can see each other
I cave in to the unknown
Trusting my blindness
I stub my toe on a log.
