The Sick Apple


The Sick Apple

Not getting any sleep for weeks and years is not helping me.

I keep thinking my chronometer is broken. Like I have a tumor in my clock.
Or a wrench in the pain switch. Something is not moving or working.
Time is strange. I can’t count on it. It makes less sense as my pain has careened out of control.

By 5:45 Sunday morning, I have again been up the whole night.
I would like to start the steroids but I am so queasy and green and sour from pain.
Like a sick apple.

The failed vicodin and other drugs.

Rebound headaches.

Hemicrania continua.
