My back, my lower back hurts as I walk, and my hip hurts and a pain in my kidney (on the left) connects the dots. And my feet hurt (with arches never to rise again), and my knees they really hurt, with the cartilage wasted, and bone click-clacking on bone like dampened fire sticks. And I think there’s an infection in my eye.
But the pavement of the sidewalk feels solid, its cracks only charming, with weeds professionally wrestling around and through the blocks of pavement, and bulging roots tilting the blocks from one side than the other, and the concrete is good. And the deep tar of the street is warm in the sunlight, gives just a little to the soles of my heavily corrective, armoured boots as I step. And my feet could be bare as my step slows to the slow solid belly-soft but firm-feeling ground. And this pain and that pain resolves, dissolves and plays at being extinguished in steps.
So my back is bad, and my hip is bad, and my feet, and my knees, and my eye needs work. But the concrete is good, and the sidewalk, and the street, and the roots, and the deep tar, and the upholding ground is very good.
