migraine sausage

it's migraine day

clamps on head
light stabbing eyes
sick stomach
shaky hands
freezing cold
throbbing neck

hot bath
cold cloth to forehead
cover eyes
socks on feet
under twenty blankets

shake
curl up
cry
it hurts too much to cry
scream
it hurts too much to scream
it hurts too much to move

ride it out
ride it out
rock back and forth
keep eyes shut
try to relax

try to sleep
take some more pills
stomach ache
more water
sick

ride it out
ride it out
I'm migraine sausage
today
