Fear of falling

Catch your toe and

fall

knee to hip to elbow 

fall

shoulder to ear to crown

fall

On the ground

fall

a crowd around

fall.

Stare at the sky

fall.

Praise Jesus 

Fall

Caught yourself

Fall

Thank the lord.

However

I fell...Labor Day Weekend...there was no alcohol involved just an edge in the garage that grabbed my toe.  I fell like my poem but avoided the hip.  Flat on my face, my nose smashed into the concrete, saved my forehead from a certain cracking.  A bit of ice to the face and nothing but a scratch and a skinned knee.  I was sore like I had been in a car crash ache. But the new porcelain hip stayed in place.
