Get up

Fall down 53 times

Get up 54

              Old Zen Saying

____________________________________________

The best intentioned steps forward

Sometimes seem to accomplish nothing

You may take faltering steps forward

But you are seen by others

where you have always been

And so

Plop plop

There you are

Down again in that place

Which is curiously shaped like your butt

Looking up

Wondering

Do I try

One more time !?
