falling up the stairs

who doesn't
have a scar, an old wound
to speak of.
who doesn't
have a bruise somewhere
gone blue,
a stubbed toe,
an elbow
struck, like lighting
up your arm.
who hasn't fallen,
or stumbled up a flight
of stairs.
tell me.
who hasn't been in love
and lost?
raise your hands.
no one?
