I'm trying so hard
to understand
what is being said
but its pointless
with an epileptic head
where the hell
are my little orange pills
I can't find them
at a time when I
need them most
I rang a friend
at 5.30 am
I don't think I'll last
the time it takes
for her to arrive
but I hope I can
So I'll stay on Litnet
till help comes

Get hold of LitNet it's the best remedy! even though not orange (but look under your keyboard for the little pills!). And from what you say so deftly one understands that you also know what's being said! Ah, and: HOPE is stronger than THOUGHT. Be well, for this poem is well done. Bar
a hearty bowl of porridge
helps a great deal
I shouldn't be cooking
any type of meal
it upsets other people
and puts them in doubt
but I can't just lie down
and wait this feeling out
(checked myb bags and drawe3rs - no blasted magic orange pills!!!)
PS I hate rhyme mode thinking (lol)

Did you actually type this while waiting? There is a sense of nervous energy in it. If so, I hope you were/are all right!

"To absent friends, lost loves, old gods, and the season of mists; and may each and every one of us always give the devil his due." --Neil Gaiman; The Sandman Vol. 4: Season of Mists
"I'm on my way, from misery to happiness today. Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh" --The Proclaimers
I also hope this story has a happy ending.
Talk about suffering for one's art..... I can think of easier methods of seeking inspiration (lol).
Having said that, I did enjoy reading them. H
You have turned your suffering into art. You are a transducer of poetry!
WE are always here, orange pills or not, and as you can see from the foregoing there are many of us who care for your poems - and for you.
thanks everyone. You're my virtual family! I am feeling much better now and no seizure which is always a good thing.
