Only a scientist would say I broke my fibula.

There was a show on NatGeo about these Tasiers. They can jump over 90cm thats equivalent to a human jumping over 40 yards.

How did I miss this?? This calls for Szymborska......

TARSIER

I am a tarsier and a tarsier’s son,
the grandson and great-grandson of tarsiers,
a tiny creature, made up of two pupils
and whatever simply could not be leff out;
miraculously saved from further alterations–
since I’m no one’s idea of a treat,
my coat’s too small for a fur collar,
my glands provide no bliss,
and concerts go on without my gut–
I, a tarsier,
sit living on a human fingertip.

I am a tarsier–the father and grandfather of tarsiers
a tiny creature, nearly half of something,
yet nonetheless a whole no less than others,
so light that twigs spring up beneath my weight
and might have lifted me to heaven long ago
if I hadn’t had to fall
time and again
like a stone lifted from hearts
grown oh so sentimental:
I, a tarsier,
know well how essential it is to be a tarsier.
