This is a poem that I am proud of from this semester.
Transitions
Defense to
offence
It’s a transition of the
court
Run back to your half, side
by side
Trip or nudge, push or
shove, your transition is to the floor
Up you stand ready to run,
you check yourself
An elbow is mangled and
refuses to bend straight
Another transition you
make
The pain is a dysfunctional,
broken tingle
You hear your own screams of
pain, a strident yell
A crowd gathers to help
because you fell
Another
transition
Flashing red and blue lights
as if in a dream
You don’t want to believe
this happened to you
Inside of the ambulance you
lay and wait
Looking like a robot with
cords and wires attached
Beeping and whirling they
check your pulse and blood pressure
A monitor show your heart beat, you feel a squeeze on your arm
Another
transition
From the beeps to the crisp
antiseptic, white, metal place
You lay yet again on a bed
in agony and fright
A transition to sleep, with
colorful dreams
The people in blue attach
more tubes
To fix what has been
broken
Back in place each bone sits
but the ride is not yet done
Pain will come in many ways
each and everyday
A
transition
Many things you cannot do
with only one non-dominant arm
Transition your ways of how
you do things
For six weeks or more
nothing will be the same
This is my
transition
