I went around the block once or twice
Just to be cliche
I became thirsty, so I filled a glass halfway
To determine whether I was an optimist

All the drinking made me hungry
I started baking a souffle
It was taking too long so I popped in a dance CD
The souffle never rose

To burn off the calories, I went to the gym
It was time to get into a less round shape

As I crossed the street
I was struck by a vehicle

It wasn't long before the ambulance rolled up
The EMT was quick to ask, "Are you o.k?"

I would have responded quicker
If I had been conscious

The doctor placed a full leg, hard cast on me
His advice, "Don't take this off for 4 weeks and don't get it wet"

So now, only the right side of me is clean
All because I tried to be cliche

just plain wonderful. wonderfully.. sad and painful somewhat. you have a unique way of looking at things and telling stories to make them linger.. and that's why I love your poems. -lime.
