Head Cold


Here I sit in static motion,
Floating on a numb notion.

That words flying in and out my head,
Can be grasped; can be read.

Eyes wide open, watery, red.
Hot, behind them, mushy bread.

Sinus pressure to my brain,
Drives me to thoughts insane.

Drives me to perpetual motion,
Crickets singing like an ocean.

Soaring in my inner ear,
Ancient siren held so dear.

Pulling me to that far-off place,
My thoughts lost in outer space.

Will I pull them all together?
Or let them litter tissue’s blotter?

Like the sinus drains my head,
Will the words escape my bed,

To this poem,
To be read?

I've had many colds like you describe but I would never have thought to write a poem about it. I guess you never miss a chance to turn even a bad cold into something positive like this good poem. - Vic

Hahaha, oh my, don't mean to laugh at you Ron, but with you!! I had just read my piece (I wonder how many people have written about a cold...?) called, "Cold's Clutch" earlier today, deciding between it and "Waitress Nightmare" to post, Nightmare won out, damn, hate to flood my poems but you all remind of things I've written...god, I hate the feelings in my head when sick, thanks for the memory!

I'm coming down with a cold myself. Find it hard to write in this state.
