Migraine Reign
Pain is a miserly beast.
It slinks around and ensnares;
Sliding in where it is not wanted.
It lurks inside my head;
Swirling around my sinuses with menacing delight.
It sneers at the medication I take
And peaks out behind my eyeballs
Pushing at them and pounding them
Like an overly energetic bass drum player.
Its rhythm tripping, prodding, throbbing
Sending my stomach into convulsions.
Holding tight and tense, I fight the beast.
I close my eyes to the shimmering light.
Close myself off into the Darkness
Let sleep take me under
And ease its gut retching reign.
