It's
a sneaky one,
this
insidiously slithering
slowly
sliding
silently
hissing
satanical
siren song
of
promised relief
I
don't need it
I
don't need it
I
DON'T NEED IT
roll
over
switch
position,
scrunch
the pillow,
draw
the sheet
Now
he's sliding up my spine
a
vertebrae at a time
I
want to scratch, want to grab
want
to fling the fucker at the wall
and
watch him shatter to nothing
I
mean, he doesn't really exists,
so
what harm is there in that?
I'm
strong
I'm
capable
I've
come five weeks
It's
almost over
It's
almost over
It's
almost over
It'll
never really be over
I'll
always be here
sure,
I'll leave you alone,
like
I did when you thought I'd left
for
good
that's
my best trick, you know
make
you think you've won
battle
over, let down your guard
Ha!
That's
my best time to strike, to
insidiously
slither
slowly
slide
hissing,
silently
suggesting
my
satanical siren song
just
take one
AGAIN
just one
Silently
praying
I
ride it out
Get
up, read
watch,
write, cook,
slither
around the silent house
myself
until
he leaves.
For
today.

I'm linking up at my new favorite watering hole, dVerse. Head on over for a beverage and some bards. Good times, all are welcome.

No,
I didn't quit smoking. I quit amitriptyline which I've been taking
for over three years to help me sleep. Withdrawal absolutely sucks
big time. And it's so unfair. Over the years, I've taken just about
every narcotic out there, and stopped taking them with absolutely no
problems. Try to stop some stupid, practically over the counter
“non-habit forming, really safe” med? HELL.
