The Opening
metal scream
learn to sing
ease into
the shoulder brush
endorphin rush
the question
and its answering
the fear it brings
the opening
sleep the whole night
and wake with the light on
my body is not a treasure chest
anymore—it is a river

The opening line really snaps the reader to attention! I love this poem!
Poems sometimes come like a river… I like that yours came to call..
