Clockwork

JD

shuffle

shuffle

one foot

then another


shuffle

stumble

trip

shuffle

stumble

trip

 

feet won’t grip

hand left side shakes

shoulders hump slump

 

power slowing

body inject

dopamine agent

resuscitate

 

savour every moment respectfully

 

one two

one two

walking in style

 

face relaxes smile

shoulders back with ease

shaky hand still

 

balance

dance

sing

 

do everything until

 

shuffle

trip

stumble

shake

 

shufffle…

 

trip……..

 

stumble……….

 

shake………………

 

the body unwinds again.
