Ocean of Gravity


I must stand before I can run.
I must sit before I can rest my feet.
I must lie down before I can fall asleep.

From running to resting to sleeping,
I tread through an ocean of gravity,
slowly pulling me down into its grave.

    With all this tubing,
    I can’t even take a bath
    Or touch my toes or
    Clip their nails, both feet clutching
    The high wire act of balance.
