Sickness Green

blossomblister

burst

(finally)

ate out my sickness

almost turned green.

took too much chlorophyll

(for my health –

i’ve seen the ads)

drank cups and cups

each night and each swallow

chirping pleasantly

made me feel stronger, but

almost turned green.

frustration peaked

almost at snow

but not quite,

couldn’t stand the dangling

piece of peanut butter anymore

had to grab for it

sick of the lack of meaningful

(methought now meknows)

0s and 1s and all

these mouse games,

had to grab for it,

had to scream.

almost turned green.
