HYPO

Published by poemagraphic in the blog poemagraphic's blog. Views: 714

HYPO

In that hypo’s long, sharp, silver, needle
The fentanyl curse left me feeble

With dragons coursing through my veins
Oxygen depleted starving brain

Just an empty husk, and to my shame
Nought of me... Just death remains.



Po

    I find the cerebral white flag waived
    When sugar levels drop, depriving & starving
    cognitive struggling, juggling the remnants of logic
    Save for only base instinct as I swim against the wash
    To find the water's edge, a childhood oath
    since the first porcine derived med monster woke
    To eat, perchance another battle, without the weight of what I create
    As the unwilling participant..
