I have a...

I have a...

I have a headache

One of these that lives with me and won’t go away

Like that one piece of hair that never settles on the right side. Even if the right side is actually the left side

I...

I have a brother

My nose at night

It seems it doesn’t pump enough the balloon inside the chest you know?

It just doesn’t 

Then I become self conscious about my breathing and my lungs and how my Head seems to need more oxygen that my blood is pumping there, my brain becomes a machine of thinking: close your eyes, air flowing through your body, send air there, controlled meditation, old methods for five minutes solutions of chronic issues.

Then veins

We can talk about veins and frozen bites and inflamed bits and parasites

Oh my extremities 

My anus my cock my toes my nose all switched around. I have a story for each one of them, a surgery or three, a long time in bed a day cleaning the house, a sexy and wrong turn of events, prohibited erections. All of those, a lot of pain.

He left when I turned

I have a mouth, no teeth or tongue

I have a heart

It pumps
