My wheels were always a trusted friend, but upon this degree of speed and spin, I felt the wobble upon the road, a countless amount of times I've rode! At this moment, I looked around, for the best place to strike the ground, and in that instant, beneath my feet, my board no more, only cracked concrete, within the silence, I heard my mom, “Don’t leave without your helmet on,” with nothing soft to break my fall, the ground and I began to brawl, It ripped my clothes, it ripped my skin, until my body seized to spin, inside my head, my world still spun, surely, my ragdoll body was done, but how could I end my day on a spill? so I scooped up my board and climbed up Stoney Hill.

Stoney Hill
My wheels were always a trusted friend, but upon this degree of speed and spin, I felt the wobble upon the road, a countless amount of times I've rode! At this moment, I looked around, for the best place to strike the ground, and in that instant, beneath my feet, my board no more, only cracked concrete, within the silence, I heard my mom, “Don’t leave without your helmet on,” with nothing soft to break my fall, the ground and I began to brawl, It ripped my clothes, it ripped my skin, until my body seized to spin, inside my head, my world still spun, surely, my ragdoll body was done, but how could I end my day on a spill? so I scooped up my board and climbed up Stoney Hill.
This is poem uses fun descriptives to capture a short period of time when falling off my skateboard as a kid.
