These ties we've forged
will not be tried while lying here:
A chain that doesn't
grip or hold
is a boat in drydock --
quite lovely to be sure,
but no-one's testing her mettle
when she's resting and unused.
How will we know
that weakest link won't break
if we don't grab on to something;
don't feel the ache, the tension and the pull?
