How To Fall


  • How to Fall by Stephanie Bradbury


    Before you start, make a list
    of pros and cons. Then choose-
    head or hip or heart first.
    Uncross your arms, prepare
    to miss the surety 
    of your step
    Waiting in line to know
    which part it was
    you bruised. 
    Touch the thrill of beard-
    stubbled skin or the landlocked 
    grass of the wet lawn.
    Look both ways before 
    you cross the room, then throw 
    yourself like a tactical dart,
    Prepared to win or lose.

    

Stephanie Bradbury lives in north Georgia where she works as an emergency room nurse. Her poetry and short stories have appeared in numerous literary magazines and journals, including Ink in Thirds, The Rusty Nail, Front Porch Review, and Third Wednesday.
