Flip Turn (Variation)

Here comes the wall, here comes the T Chin to my chest and the world flips over Feet find the tile, knees tuck in For half a second I'm folded small as a fist Push off, and I'm a straight line again Arms over my ears, gliding long Everything I spent coming down this length The wall just handed back Breath streaming silver out my nose Ceiling, then the floor, then the long blue lane Never planned the kick, it just went Like a foot that finds the stair in the dark Push off, and I'm a straight line again Arms over my ears, gliding long Everything I spent coming down this length The wall just handed back I used to think a wall meant stop Turns out it's where the speed comes from Push off, and I'm a straight line again Arms over my ears, gliding long Everything I spent coming down this length The wall just handed back Push off, push off The wall hands it back
