Limping home

It whips and chaps
The corners of a joker's smile
Sixteen feet of limping
One step forward, two steps back.
Ode to the anti-platelet
Concealing and deceiving
Until the bitter air of an unusual April
Waiter tricks the veil
Reveals the agony of impairment
Stopped still in icy climates
By swollen limbs.
