Bruised and Bemused

Bruised and Bemused

I’m wearing colors, well diffused,

But not in fashion, modes well mused.

I took the stair

And caught some air.

So now my body looks abused.

Well, some may snicker, mock or gloat.

A few may share the anecdote.

But best be warned,

Before I’m scorned.

My stunts come with a doctor’s note.
