I will never be an acrobat

I will never be an acrobat.

This thought recently occurred to me.

There is no “probably” in that statement.

I will never be an acrobat.

.

Later, I will realize that I have never previously considered a career in acrobatics anyway.

Two cows are laying in the Frisbee Field, chewing.

(We’re actually just in the schoolyard).

I imagine them in their low voices, saying,

That big guy will never be an acrobat.

Dear God, I think,

They’re right.
