Analogy

DeRay fell while walking into a dark i-max theater
at Clark Planetarium.
He struggled to get up.

The first preview showed the astronauts
staggering, falling, stumbling like drunks
as they tried to maneuver on the moon
in their inflexible spacesuits.



Old age,
with obesity, joint, and balance challenges,
 is like living in a spacesuit
24-hours a day,
we joshed.

Hopefully, there were no injuries in DeRay's fall.
