After a Fall
February 18, 2021
What comes after a fall?
Do one rise up again
bouncing like buckwheat?
Or deflate like a popped balloon-
Shredded to pieces?
Do one lay in the sun?
Lazily sunbathing-
without worry and pain?
Perhaps one stays stationary
becoming part of the earth.
Or do they move ahead?
