There/Not There

slipping down
reaching clawing
wet hands bloody hands

reaching grasping
in the slick slip mud
slide down the pitch

About Catastrophe Jones

Wretched word-goblin with enough interests that they're not particularly awesome at any of them. Terrible self-esteem and yet prone to hilarious bouts of hubris. Full of the worst flavors of self-awareness. Owns far too many craft supplies. Will sing to you at the slightest provocation.
