How To Fall With Style (National Poetry Writing Month 2019 #1)   Leave a comment

First, take a deep breath;
You know it’s been a while,
But now you’re going to have to fall with style.

Second, gauge the distance;
Is it a few feet or a mile?
Who knows how far you’ll have to fall with style?

Third, don’t sweat the details
While in this public trial.
‘Cause they don’t matter when you fall in style.

And last, embrace your fate.
As you jump, just crack a smile.
For that’s the only way to fall in style.
