playing hangman with nausea...


Angry days spent in bed with a broken knee, angry thoughts that i have to take out and store away... this is one way...


Nausea:

There there, better out than in
When nausea prevails
When disturbance settles in
Take a breath I say
And work that momentum within

Just beware

No one needs formulaic prayers
Or a death on a balcony
Hide your dramatics in layers
As thin as your words should be
If you must be a purveyor
Of a harsh authenticity

Remember that

It’s the moon, not the winds,
That commands the tides slowly…




and this is how the original post was (but i had to put the text alone...)
