BAD NERVES

I whipped
the head back
and
the nerve was stretched,
the neck hurt,
the torso
was fine
and
work was coming at me ..

I only run
because I can't walk
and
I gallop because
being fashionable has nothing to do with
clothes ..

so,
when I hurt myself I know
that
I am operable
and
that inactivity for
a healthy one
is
an
inexcusable excuse ..

when
my
next pulled muscle
or crick
in the next
comes around -
I'll name it after you ..
