My Tony Hawk poem was published yesterday on my birthday

So of course I leaned fervently into the inevitably of aging by picking skateboarding up again.

My husband + another friend humored me enough to tag along and take pictures.

 

 

The very tiny found poem can be found here:

Ahhh shit... I grabbed my neighbors board to see if I could even do a bitch ass ollie... barely.... I feel like I'd bust my knees up now

[Poof]

my neighbor skateboards in his garage. I feel like he definitely bought the house bc it had a big garage he could skateboard in. With both doors closed so nobody knows about it. Except the sidedoor that gives poofy a perfect view so poofy knows hes in there doing adult skateboarding

Oof, yeah I'm worried about my knees too, and am currently the sorest I've been in years, but I'm hoping to make a legitimate return, and buy some actual protection

Nice! I spent Fall and Winter re-learning how to skateboard. I busted my ass whenever I tried to Ollie or go down half-pipes, but just riding a board in the park is very calming.

Maybe share it with Tony Hawk on twitter or something?

It's been at least a year and some change since I've done any kind of competitive skateboarding, but I have two days off in a row. If I play my cards right maybe I can do a little bit of all the things I enjoy. Skateboarding music/writing. Congrats on the publish. 🙂
