My Life’s Dancing Devils ...


                                                       (February 13)
         
                               My Life’s Dancing Devils ... 

                                    

                                      During the past Three years
                                      of enduring serious illness taking me away steadily
                                      i have often come to Believe
                                      that i am Alive ... in Hell!

                                      Surrounded by many different tormenting Devils
                                      on a continual roster taking turns torturing me
                                      and when one stops another one starts
                                      frequently working in pairs
                                      so all 'changes over' overlap with no break
                                      often suffering three of them at once
                                      and impossible to fight as they keep moving
                                      and altering rules and types of torture ...

                                      I am Enduring patiently all day long
                                      with minimal sounds betraying any pain.
                                      No need my entire body is a mirror 
                                      and an eloquent picture of it all

                                      Does anything go away when i close my eyes?

                                      No!...

                                      Every pain, every discomfort, every injury
                                      penetrates potently through sleep...
                                      the body constantly aware of its suffering
                                      often my woeful moaning
                                      waking me up several times during the night.

                                      I do all i Know to heal this body as best i Can
                                      while endeavouring to Transmute and Transcend
                                      its physical tormenting and challenging reality
                                      through my mind and turning every experience
                                      into creativity, helping to see it all from an above
                                      remote, detached level of mind
                                      as well as focus on more interesting uplifting issues...

                                       This has proved helpful, comforting and therapeutic 
                                       but there are moments i wonder 
                                       had there been a choice  of a peaceful, natural
                                       "Delete" key, which of the two options
                                       would i have chosen as my  preferred one ...
