—That 'Oh shit' moment
right as you catch your toe
on the crack in the sidewalk—
—the ground rushing up
no matter how awesome
your impression of a windmill—
—and for some godforsaken reason
that ***** street-water puddle
is always there to 'catch' you—
—and your bag of groceries.

—That 'Oh shit' moment
right as you catch your toe
on the crack in the sidewalk—
—the ground rushing up
no matter how awesome
your impression of a windmill—
—and for some godforsaken reason
that ***** street-water puddle
is always there to 'catch' you—
—and your bag of groceries.
Some days are like that.
