Summary

I Choose to Write a Poem I choose to write a poem when my left ankle's broken, purple, and my right ankle's swollen blue, both knees banged, twice their usual size, both my long legs "killing me," while a famous angel is really killing me. I separate physical pain from the real thing- the real thing, the soul usually dies before the body. My soul is dancing, welcoming spring in the garden on a beautiful June morning, ready to live forever.
