11: December 11

December 11, 2009 10:59 pm

My poem for yesterday
was lying in bed
sunlight blazing
against the curtain

some small celled thing
crawling through my system
the way I crawl home
after work

fighting through pain
for position.

My poem for yesterday
was feverish,
written by a lazy man
aching for work

drowning in anguish
and phlegm.
