Act I
when i was twelve i once got
hit in the face during physical education class
somebody was practicing
for handstands
and my face happened to
be in his heel’s trajectory
as a little boy from the
90s I thought ouch (my ego)
while some blood dripped
from my right eyebrow
then i distinctly
remember thinking
‘im bleeding but at least i wont have to do my homework tonight’
Act II
later on that night
with three healing strips
over my right eyebrow
i was quietly doing my
homework
