On  Frozen  Pond
~~~


I climbed upon
the greenhouse roof
a drunken shortcut
makin'
The glass beneath me
shattered proof
of every step
I'd taken
~
I cut my knees
I scraped my shins
my pants
a ragged mess
A few more steps
I'll be across
this frozen pond
I guess
~
A mighty crash
but not a splash
the ice
gave way too soon
My belt hung up
upon a nail
I dangled
above the room
~
I wave my arms
I kick my legs
hey!
there's people under water!
And I'm not even
soaking wet
except
I relieved my bladder
~~~
