Thoughts While in Crow Pose

Not many
Because I’m not in it long
So I guess the thought is
“Oh my god I’m in it-“
And then down.

Thoughts While Attempting Crow Pose

Um
My body cannot do that.
It has not done that since it got hurt.
That was about a year ago.
I squat to the floor and plant my feet.
It sounds like broken glass in my knees.
My feet don’t stay fully on the floor.
The instructor comes over and tells me what to do so my body can be good and safe.
I do that.
I am dripping sweat.
My hair has come out of its tie
and is wet in my face.
But I am doing it.
I continue to do it.

Later I will lie down on the floor and want to cry.
After that I will feel calm while I look at the city.
But right now
My palms are pressed down
On a mat that I don’t own
And my arms are shaking against my knees.

Oh my god I’m in it-
