Reach up with a hand,
And push off with a foot.
If you fall down,
mind your caput.
“Climbing is quite easy!”
I heard him exclaim,
“These cracks and fissures
all know my name.”
The voice came from a climber
As grand as these steps.
Capaneus the warrior,
how could I forget?
Astonished I watched,
slipping in the gravel and sand,
Capeneus upward bound,
Posting his climb on Instagram.
While I was distracted,
and looking around,
I slipped carelessly
And fell down to the ground.
Dizzying jealousy
Is a merry-go-round.
If you stay on long enough,
you’re sure to fall down.
Falling is putting
yourself in a place
you may not have been to
And you may not escape.
Reach up with a hand,
and push off with a foot
If you fall down,
Mind your caput.
MAH.

In a Plymouth six was a bag of tricks
and a veteran of a foreign war.
He stopped me cold and began to scold
me for having dirty hair.
He called me a draft dodger he called me a tink
“Get in the shower you fucking stink!”
Before he left he spit in my eye, I tried not to cry
and remember, that it was a different time back then.
