//The evening on swing set//

As the swing goes up
I stretch my legs straighter,
clutch my hands
to the chains either side,
breath in the air.

As the swing goes up
the ground fades a little and
the moon gets a bit closer.

It makes me believe
the moon is an easy chase.
I never wished to question the belief
as it feeds the conqueror inside me
a little more pride.
