*Ow* LOL Trying to laugh despite the pain ...


Poem Artwork

Pain ratches the spine
poker-stiff;  the leg
follows, asses high -
sciatica does
that, raises the hurt,
ups the ante.  S q u a t.
Forgot to take my
pills.  Have to fold.  The
dealer laughs - the dude's
gettin' on my nerve.

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (12/2)

OOOOOOOOOOooooouch.... You really describe this well, Karla. DON'T forget the meds... you need them! But counter-exercise sure does help. Isn't The Cat yoga position good for backs? I physically couldn't walk when carrying my babies after a certain stage in the pregnancy, owing to sacro--illiac pressure. Now it is my upper back and shoulders that lock up, and the pain shifts progressively downwards. Up or down, I feel the effects of this one. Hold onto that last frayed nerve and use it to ping the pain away like an arrow from a bow! :)) Healing love and prayers from Kate xx PS... the picture made me think of a breast cancer patient... sorry, just me... my chest's on back-to-front!

Being creative with a painful body... it shows a good sense of humor, strength and originality.

Good idea!
