Poem: Shattered


Migraine poetry

Migraine poem shattered

Shattered

Blue, black, and red

stars

dance behind the

mind

Pain shatters

within
and breaks the world

apart.

What can I do but,
crawl

through infinity,
to a new day to

rue.

Here comes

Blue

But Nothing
Matters
Shattered

This is migraine poetry. Or chronic illness poetry. When in pain distract the brain. And poetry seems to come out when I am in pain. Generally on the pain experience or the migraine itself.

This image only was part of the poem. I left the remainder out and used a basic format, because I am posting it on my facebook page. I find it doubtful migraine poetry appeals to a lot of people. But certainly, it appeals to some. This one is about the aura and migraine onset.

I tried Butterbur and Pie

I Dreamed
