pumpkins lie
strewn around in lots
bright orange
some rotting
the weather surrounding them
time for Halloween

masks reveal
nothing that’s inside
meant to hide
all our flaws
this keeps the real you hidden
applies to us all

fall brings cold
weather is changing
day by day
night by night
always unpredictable
always waiting to see

disrupted
stroke takes your being
life may stop
may go on
have no control, wreaks damage
unpredictable

miss the warmth
as fall progresses
darker skies
far less sun
parents lighting fires at nigh
banishing the shadows

I take opiates for the problems with my spine more-so than Fibromyalgia and so I don’t know if they are doing anything for the Fibro or not. Right now they aren’t helping my back and spine either. Since having the 6 facet joint injections in the spine the pain has been much worse. No help at all for the most part. I have to see if they have a higher dose and if she will prescribe it. Since I take psyche and anxiety meds they don’t like to mix them as they are more dangerous in combination.

my birthday
nineteen fifty-six
screaming loud
painful birth
very emotional still
mental health screwed up
