Eerhhhh


Fever rages

Skin too tight

Out

Out

Out

Let me out

Away from the ache

The burn

Clenched muscles

Ribs splinter with each cough

Pain unbearable

Cough

Cough

Cough

Body wracked with broken sobs

So dry

Oh so very dry

Skin leached by ineffective drugs

Lungs still full

Praying for death

But no escape

No kindness shown me

I linger

Suffering

Ad infinitum

Yep, I still have the plague. Also known as bronchitis and a sinus infection. I will recover. I’m determined now if only to make those who did this to me very, very sorry.
