Concise

What It Felt Like To Break My Leg As Imagined For Years Set To The Tune of Clifton Chenier, But Not to the music; the Leg is Being "Set," As In Re-Aligned.*


I cried for what felt like days

But like most things that hurt,
When I get hurt,
I actually just stood there
As my face got whiter,
Which didn't happen.

And as my leg Swelled,
As I imagine legs do
When they break
I thought about crackers
And how when you load them up with Cheese
They always crumble on your sweater.
On my sweaters.


*See here too long a title, laid to rest.
