THE SECOND
THE SECOND COMING ?
Two whitehaired men eye me
One has the laugh of a 6 yr. old boy
I cannot say that I am not intrigued
I have probably been closer to death’s door
than they in the past few weeks
A near overdose of migraine meds
The cure in this case far worse than the disease:
twitchy muscles nausea racy heart bizarre intentions
not to mention ideations – My cabbie wondered
if I might be pregnant ?
Which sounded thoroughly messianic to me
