Cripple on a crutch


I'm now a cripple on a crutch,
It's an experience overrated,
but not by much
No swinging legs, no toes that touch
How one muscle pull, one calf in trauma,
Can cause such a hell of a lot 'a' drama
Is rather unexpected,
Calves are deceptive
Walking without one is like writing without grammar.
I'm waddling like a penguin now,
Swaying from side to side
No dancing, leaping, jumping
At least my tongue's not tied!
