Written for:  The Twiglets #127 – “knocked him down”

He put himself
on a pedestal–
they knocked him down

She did not know
that the School of Hard Knocks
was literal

Tornado spinning–
a smoke-gray funnel
of destruction
descends, knocking
down lives

There once was a man on a diet
whose wife convinced him to try it
She said, isn’t this great
he is a perfect weight
Too slim, knocked down by Hurricane Wynn, he felt disquiet
