I look at a tree
It is falling from the sky
landing on my head.
Squid follow my gaze
Underwater they swim free
I am a shellfish
The sky is graying
Clouds have lost their shapeless form
Eaten by the rain.
Green is a color
Painting my windows at day
Boom. Exploding plants.
I watch as the shards
Whiz slowly past my eyeballs
Time slows to a halt.
My garden is gone
Something ate my tomatoes
I suspect rabbits.
Gray shapes gain color
The sun comes out at long last
The world is happy.
Have you seen my health?
I lost it to a disease.
It has my bowels.
I fell down some stairs
It felt like a hurricane
Beating my ribcage.
I fell from the sky
Landing like an elephant
Now there’s a big hole.
I put my foot down
Something went “squish” on my shoe.
It’s now a flat frog.
