Image for the poem on the edge

on the edge

off a windswept island's
rocky ledge
life  
is best felt
on the edge
 
to live  
is more than  
mere survive
next to death's where
you're most alive
 
some say passion
some say thrill
i say pushing
own will
makes one go
atop the hill
stand on the edge
flare nostrills
take  deep breath
living is real
ordinary life
steps
on treadmill
