Strut

On the beach, a cute girl I passed by I decided I must catch her eye I tripped on a rock Went face down in shock And I wished I could curl up and die

Ha, ha! I once challenged my younger sister to a 50 meter sprint. As I looked over my shoulder to see how much I had beaten her by, I tripped over a rock myself, and wound up in a cast with a broken ankle for six weeks. ~ Mr. Hero

A fictional write but the very thought of it makes me cringe ;-)
