Twisted Ankle
I twisted an ankle
On a word,
One I used,
Not one I heard...
The pain rose straight up
the spine
Because that foolish word
was solely mine
When brain and mouth
Of two different a land
Stangers to the other
Cover my mouth with my hand...
I twisted an ankle
I hurt someone
Oh, foolish man
What have you done?
