To Be Chronically Ill

I wake up and the fingers on my right hand are

Numb.

That fuzzy, black and white TV noise feeling

courses through my veins.

Are my nerves dying?


Agonizing mood swings,

wild nausea, the headaches like someone is

playing whack-a-mole in my head,

in my bones, and I was never given the choice

to grab the mallet.


Maybe it’s simply the Universe,

making it even for that time when I was 6 and

hit my l...

Sometimes I look at my brother

and he is not my brother

But a stranger,

A lean, muscled man,

25, the height of youth and energy, vitality -his presences radiates joy,

Is unstoppable.

He’s building the life he wants,

effortlessly charismatic and charming,

He runs marathons and flys to Japan

Sometimes I have to remind myself he is not the small boy

Running thro...
