Gravity
I’m not ready for you yet
I won’t be falling down
for quite some time
you can have my feet
and pin them to the ground
but you’re going to have to wait
for the rest of me
it’s not that I’m ungrateful
I thank you for stopping me
from flying off into space
but this doesn’t mean
I will reward you
by falling flat on my face
