Stairway to Huay Xai
Written By: Krysada stairway to my heart my earth seeded by sapphire scent of diesel and dirt mixed with Mekong mist I walk up Wat Chomkao Manilat stands at the summit among clouds one step one memory ascending another few steps missing I do not remember much at age 2 molded more steps age 17 sculpt scores more age 27 I may never finish the stairway swirls a bent lance when the last step plants I can dance Tehvada witness the sapphire cypher
