I tiptoe
I tiptoe around life
just to arrive safely
I tiptoe through the night
and I wake up with a busted lip
I call a family physician
to schedule a visit
the clerk needs a reason
I think to myself, humility
then I answer her out loud
“I passed out.”
she asks, “A blackout?”
“That’s not correct.” I insist
“I fainted. You know, I lost consciousness.”
she asks, “How long ago did this happen?”
I answer, “I’ve always had a loss of consciousness.”
