I was nowhere

without a prayer.

I began to look

to stare

at a hook

hanging right in thin air.

"Step out of there,"

It said.

I did.

Being bold.

I took a hold.

I begin to rise

to my surprise.

Higher. Faster.

Velocity.

My new master pulling

up on me.

As I hold on

to the hook on the string

I look to see

who can it be?

It’s me.

I look right back

at the end of the hook

my fingers grasping the string.
