A Conversation for Manhole Covers

Falling Down.

I've fallen down a manhole. I was in Lanzarote, taking a photograph, and I jumped up onto one of those manholes which are raised from the ground slightly. It flipped in its 'socket', possibly because it was the wrong lid for the hole, and I dropped to the waist. I only stopped by catching the sides with my hands and by smashing my shins really hard on a big round piece of iron. It really hurt, and I was on the way to the airport, so I got plenty of staring . Bled quite a lot.
