Climbing Haiku

You ask why I climb?

No, not because it is there.

To see what is there.

 

Harness doubled back,

Figure eight with overhand.

I am free to climb.

 

Shit, I'm chicken shit

Will my feet hold here, I say?

One way to find out.

 

Falling, I yell out.

How well did I set that cam?

It holds, a scraped knee.

 

The laundry piles up,

My family wants me at home.

The mountains await.
