Thorn2

One's body, exposed to day-to-day stresses and life's traumatic baggage can break down causing all kinds of physical maladies represented in my somewhat repiticious series of "Thorn" poems. Thorn2 is the second of many.

Like the unsavory memories of a turbulent life-affair, you cling to me. Like the sounds of "pokin' at me, pokin'at me" staccato notes, you surround me with your presence and boldly delight in my despair. Is your thorn-like pain my self-inflicted, self imposed initiation? As proof, I offer to snap your picture, but you hide insidiously inside my head, making those around me think I'm a hyprochondriac or worse, just plum crazy.But you always let me know you're still inside me as you keep screaming your name,inside my brain ..."MIGRAINE!!"
