DROPPING BY TO SAY HI
AND TO LEAVE ONE OF MY STORIES OF UNFORTUNATE TIMES!

'WHAT GNAWS ON MY SPINE'

Awakening back pains are a strain on my brain.
What I thought was the rain,
And arthritical pain
Was far from the answer, the doctor explained.

“What you’ve got here are teeth,
That lie deep beneath
Your lower spinal frame.”

I listen in aw, as he starts to explain
That what I was feeling,
And my continuous screaming,
Was not from a dream,
But simply a twin,
That settled right in,
And began to devour my spleen!

My backache is from this invader,
That grinds on my spine like a saw.
And all that remains of this twin inside me
Is a mouthful of teeth and a jaw.

I feel an attack as it gnaws on my back,
When I lay on my back, that’s when
The teeth start to bite,
In the middle of night,
I wake up in pain yet again.

The doc called it Lillian, my sister inside,
I screamed out in pain when she gnawed on my side.
There’s nothing to do!
There’s no way to sleep!
The doc says that Lillian is one in a billion
And I can’t live without her,
She makes my heart beat!

So it’s off now to bed, the worst place I dread.
I’ll do anything to fall fast asleep.
But I won’t be surprised when I’m closing my eyes,
That it’s she who starts grinding her teeth!
