.4. What A Pain Poem by David Threadgold

Sat alone it’s not surprising
Waiting as the pain keeps rising
Source unsure though over-sizing
Uncontrolled now my demising

Where it came from no one knows
Every day it comes and goes
Constant shooting pain that grows
Swellings on my back that shows

Who decided it should be
Pain free many not so me
Doctors say just wait and see
2 am and yet more tea

Puffing blowing overflowing
Constant pain now keeps on growing
Moving careful steps now slowing
I try my best but now its showing
