Flu – fire and ice
Fever like a sun
burn – every surface blazing –
yet chilled to the core.
Regret
A blowtorch melting
a block of ice from within,
pain made transparent.
Depression
Heavy blanket weighs
you down, yet cocoons you. Why
bother to crawl out?
Edward Scissorhands
A-Depp-t cult classic
fairy tale, gothic icon
all rolled into one.
Psoriasis
I scratch itchy skin,
thinking of lepers losing
pieces of themselves.
Stephen King films
We longed for The Mist
and 1408 like kids
dreaming of Christmas.
Moral chicken
They saw a film on
how poultry is killed. They cluck
as I eat hot wings.
The day after
Busyness is best
to occupy, medicate
you. Endings are hard.
High school
You’ll never again
feel pain, joy both at once. Be
so at odds with life.
