Poetry of a Migraineur
Crouched beside cold porcelain
In quiet dark
A bass drum thumping away behind my eye
A big black spot in front of it
Tears that hurt to cry, run down my cheeks
I can’t stop them
They drip off my chin
They land on the cool cloth
That hurts too much
To lay on my brow
Life goes on all around me
But I am here
Crouched by cold porcelain
In quiet dark
With my bass drum
And my tears
