Relief

Just a quick post today, thought this was a very moving poem.


Relief, yeah relief relief
very much so
a medication to ease
then you can carry on
marring the pain
a blanket over

when you get the pain
you drop right down

say your standing on a stepladder
then you drop
take the medication
and your back on the ladder
