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.
