Throbbing twinge
To blinding light
Doubling over
Pinioned, you'll hover
For a moment
The trap is set
All it takes is a tiny misstep
Just an inch
And the bone and sinew
Unhinge
...
Like a snubbed lover
Crippling and crumpling
My very form
To this spot on the pavement
Where I squirm comically
Attempting to right myself
Useless.
I resolve to keep moving
Grit teeth
Eyes squeezed shut
The elusive sigh of relaxation
Seems like a long forgotten myth
