Sucker Punch

Emotional shock is no joke, though
you may chuckle in the earthquake
you choke when unguarded and alone. 

When pain sucker punches your ribcage as hard as a battering ram, you ask why and how did any of this pointless, relentless horror happen?
Trouble answers by twisting your nerves like an owl's head, 180 degrees away from all your plans, turning you into a risky punchline on slanted legs.
