Over the Himalayas (October 2016) - “Sunlight streamed through grumbling storm clouds that played like tiger kittens around the mountain ridges.” ― Jane Wilson-Howarth, A Glimpse of Eternal Snows: A Journey of Love and Loss in the Himalayas

Flu

Like a wild beast
Inside
The ached body
Injecting
Feverish nightmares
Into the sweating night

Static hours
Stuck
To the bed
The mind
As heavy as
An anvil
The body like
A cotton flower

Thoughts
Floating in a room
Soaked  with warm sweet tea
And honey

Endless hours
Rocked by
Some fleeting naps
In the chore of a winter
drawn by the hypnotic music
Of stillness

An hibernation

Eyes closed
I think of what
You saw
Then
From your ostracized bed

Those wounds
You would never
Recover from

They just dragged you away
A little more
Everyday
Far from this merciless world
Of  deeply breathing life

My temporary pains
Are not your agony
Eyes half closed
I am
Just waiting for a dawn
Which has
Never been yours
