The Ladder
when you climb the ladder
you have become too insensitive
focusing your eyes
upon the fruits up the tree
you have had not the chance to ask
about its own ambitions too
or at least about some of its most
simple dreams
to lean upon a wall
when you step upon one of its arms
you never ever heard any complaint from its feet
