the pick up

October 7, 2009

I could run
I could jump
I could crash
Head goes bump

I could sing
I could wail
I could screech
Vocal chords fail

I could swim
I could stroke
I could thrash
Begin to choke

I would try anything
Impossible things!
I wouldn't even mind
Failing and falling
Crashing and stalling
Messing and bawling

Because even with
Egg on face
Standing last place
A disgrace
I know you're there
Just in case

To pick me up off the floor.
