memory of a fall
Tuesday, August 17, 1999
Stomach tubes far behind left juices churning in throat opening void.
As air rises and below land falls, mortality question for obedient muscle’s falter.
Swimming feet in lakes of slimy residue and legs quiver
thanking muscles of goo, one foot over the other to chant inspiringly vigor.
As thoughts and memories coalesce, and danger and weakness are forefront brought,
memories of falls and jumping fantasies overcome the sensible foe.
