Strobe light trees peripheral spread
Clear vision and opaquely flashed
Inside flicking on a malignant head
Eyes perpendicular to suns descent
Glare from windows up ahead
Patchy views cause eyes effect
Headaches shell as distant storm
Blotchy outlook brains revenge
Photon stimuli dumbs as scorn
Pins and needles parts of lips
Spoonerisms every silly phrase
Nonsensical utterances trips
Paracetamol cluster bomb
Seeking darkness isolated
Sleep it off in a fragile tomb
Couple of hours shut down
Sight competes gingerly
With dry hangovers' frown
Soon it will be normal 'less
Stress or glare set it off
And malady ignites its hex.

Amazing description of such a shattering malady as migraine! The clinical symptoms are so correctly brought out! How it makes us averse to light and sound! Shutting up in a 'tomb' and slip into a death like sleep after gulping down extra strong paracetamol is the only solution to arrest this unyielding villain! !
Seems to me like someone took a trip to the psychedelic shack and could not get back. An interesting write. Good.
Sounds like a really vivid bad hang over headache. Cheers to such wonder poem, awesome title.

Another brain storming write Danny, hope this did not cause the migraine
