Tripped up and there I lay
Sprawled out, victim of misfortune
Gripping at gravel, I try to regain balance
Supported by scrapes and earth
I try to walk –
Left foot
Right foot
Heel to toes, heel to toes.
But,
My momentum no longer comes from my core
I fumble –
Not knowing pain is a product of passion
I learn to walk again
Right foot
Left foot
Toes to heel, toes to heel.
On my feet again, I walk.
