(for the bad days)
to heal a shattered back
take five years of agony
add five years of therapy
swim every day mind you
practise deep breathing
and long stretching
distract your soul with
light reading while
your body wages a
grinding war of attrition
on itself;
whatever’s left intact
is a bonus.
to heal a shattered back II
whatever you do,
don’t fall asleep
or
sit down.
(for the really bad days)
