The Lonesome Death of George Mallory
The first step into
the great white silence
is easier than the last
into pitch-black violence
I fell from heaven
at the age of 37
and I remember the sensation
of leather and motivation
I climbed the Eiffel tower
and I swore by every power
that I’ll be back
I’d never rest
until Everest
lay at your feet
every piton prevents peril
so do hammer and glove
every letter left behind
is a lifeline to love
what I could not learn
you could not teach
life was a fever
the cure out of reach
I climbed the Eiffel tower
and I swore by every power
that I’ll be back
I’d never rest
until Everest
lay at your feet
but now my body
lies broken
a grisly token
that beckons to tourists
from Japan
In my final hour
I don't have the power
To make it back
I lack the speech
And my reach
Exceeds my grasp
