    The fall of bum

    A month gone I tripped on a stair;
    I hovered a time in the air
    Then tumbled with gravity
    Down nature's great cavity
    And landed balls o'er derrière.

    My shoulder removed from its socket
    (Such happens when fate opts to knock it);
    Though spared a concussion,
    My head played percussion,
    The rhyme for which is--oh well, phock it!

    I sit here, my arm in a sling,
    Exuding my Pompey Bum bling;
    My head bears tattoos
    (Though it's really a bruise):
    Of arms and my noggin I sing!

    Here ends my precipitous rhyme;
    All battery's succored by time.
    Though it still hurts to move,
    I shall soon find my groove:
    I have fallen but hardly declined.

    Who needs the sea
    when you have the wind
    Who needs to swim
    when you haven't even sinned
    I don't have to leave my chair
    to have the wasteland in my hair

    The Sea

    There once was sweet land by the sea
    And a wind that blew stuff needlessly
    But the people had sinned
    Like a bug who was pinned
    Or a wasteland without any tree.

    You poor dear.

    This was NOT a bad poem ... but that's not the point. Get well. Ya hear?

    I liked that last line, fudge.
