Alas, thy lower limbs set forth painful decree...
Bound and ply-ed tender ligaments strapped as bow
beyond proper scope. My gait is effete, slow with limp
and slurring steps.
What not have I done?
I have stretched with daily routine,
exercised moderately,
and even received remedial massage.
Still comes the torturous binding pin pushing pressure.
Return back 15 years please...
I shall take the necessary steps to
correct the injuries of past lives lived.
or is it 30 I need...
