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!!"
THERE IS NO QUESTION ABOUT IT...MYGRAINES ARE EXACERBATED BY STRSS. THE STRESS HAS GOT TO GO! I KNOW, I KNOW...ITS EASIER SAID THAN DONE...BUT GOD. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...

Contraband Marriage, traveling along the hemline of loving after incarceration, is a love story written in lyric and free form, set in reality with a different ever after.
