“Don’t Fret, Pogo”

Prompt: don't ___, ____

You
can’t be
sad on a pogo
stick

something about the
up and
down
motion reverses
despondency. You

look like a
fool
bouncing,
hair flying
madly and

eventually your
feet will
slip from the
pegs and you’ll have to
touch
back to earth and
reality

but

that feeling of freedom
defying
gravity and
troubles
will remain.
