Live Your Life
Sickness, illness, and disease
are a part of life.
It is important;
that you do not let it;
be used to take away your rights.
Nor stop you from doing;
what you want to do;
with your life.
You might have to fight;
against sickness, illness or disease;
every step of the way.
Never give up.
You must live your life every day.

Turn Around
Watching sun dance;
from bed.
Will be happy;
when I can get out again.
At least the chill is fading away.
Making this a good day.

Fighting Back
Sat on a rug;
choked in blankets;
near heater.
Trying to stay warm;
sweat out the cold fever.

Cold Fever
Feeling like;
I am living inside a rude ice cube.
Burning up in cold;
shivering shaking;
body quaking.
Barely able to write;
also feeling like a kite.
Good day and good night!

Cold Again!
Cold creeps back;
after I think its gone.
Obviously, I’m doing something wrong.
More rest; more time away.
Making me wonder everyday.
What is the message here?
I’d better take care, relax
so I can get better.

Being Sick
Sick in bed;
feels like dying inside.
No energy;
stuck on flu’s rollercoster ride.
Have to stay put;
until the tide turns,
and it is gone.
If I’m honest;
it’s getting on my nerves.

One Waiting Room
Waiting room
blabbered in cherry posters
sombre magazines.
Floor crusted
with scuffs gouges cracks
magnified by sun’s intrusion.

Fever’s Funk
Trumped by fever
flipping in bed
will be happy
when it ends.

Living Popsicle
Coldness
shutters me
inside
feeling like a living popsicle.

Wallpaper
I feel as energetic as wallpaper.
