March 17

So.   A brief hiatus to deal with a nasty spring cold that knocked me right on my derriere for a few days.  I did have some momentary inspiration for verses about my aching bones on Thursday, but not the energy to type.   Tonight- feeling better, thank you.  Not particularly inspired, but better...

I did promise to try, though, so here is me, getting back on track...

Fever

there is something
out of body
about
a fever

acutely aware
of each of my bones

from a distance

trapped and dizzy
shuffling
hot

aching ankles
burning skin

focused on each step
each move
the promise of sleep
or ibuprofen
 
it will not consume me

I am only watching!

but first,
I think,
a nap
