Falling Valentine

I need to go and get
or I need to stay and sit
but edited down to a stitch
or more I imagine my story
falling down two flights
of concrete stairs managing
to bounce off the landing
wall to turn that corner
and on down to the ground
bleeding a lot but only three
ribs broken no concussion
he needs to do what he needs to do
came to me only on re-entry
but then the phone started turning
the nouns into verbs
and silence resumed.
