****, I'm Falling

When you roll your ankle over a ridge in the street
and you are falling, you don’t have time
to think about the pain in your ankle,
or to think about putting your hands out in front of you,
or to think about landing so that your laptop doesn’t crash into the crosswalk—

You have time to think
****, I’m falling
and that’s about it,

and when you’re thinking
[I]****, I’m falling[/I

****, I'm Falling
