Chronic Cyclical Sickness

Chronic Cyclical Sickness by Josefina Eggleton

Eviction from autonomy 

Disenfranchised 

Sickness begs -- for proof

Pain proves -- inadequate

Blood shows betrayal

Now I will learn

The Exhaustion consumes

Sits cemented -- in my bones

They can't comprehend

Sojourning and not inhabiting

I inhabit -- broken skin 

Fatigue runs interni

A Hecatomb

Fragilities death 

Allegedly -- Inconsequential

All encompassing ache

Endless -- Lethargy 

Persistent -- Ailment
