Toboggan

found myself
unintentionally
by myself

empty house
snow
window
bedroom window
looking out
garden field hedge trees
hill
toboggan hill

the breath
all of us behind
the Dorritiy’s
Bonar Barry
Tim and Chris
everyone tumbling
sliding
ice steel
steel ice
but i wouldn’t do it
afraid uncomfortable
proud

i’ll learn on my own
trek across the field
to the hill
learning on my own

alone on the hill
not afraid on my own
down
did it
