Poetry

Overcome

The mind plays tricks
Drowns out the words
Flooding thoughts
Of great unworth
An unhealthy ego
Inflated
Beyond acceptability
Crushing doubt
Built to crescendo
Roaring rapids
Discouraging a look
In the rear view mirror
To remember
The boulders and rocks
That glided by
Though at the time
Seemingly impossible
It has been done
And will be again
