Arc of the Ankle

Arc of the Ankle
From the arc of the ankle
To the farther ear,
From the grapes and the bunions
To the grin of the last chevalier:
Take a pull from the flagon
Of all future revelry;
In the armor of spirits
May you find meaningless cheer.
April 2006
Parody of part of the song “Angel” by Sarah McLachlan.
