Hold every cell still
palm under chin
legs and feet balanced.
Stay in the trough
between cough and ache.
Sleep without waking
the dragon.
Forget how
tooth, limb
and eye
throb and cry
for relief.
Dream,
pray
hope
this will
pass.

2. I am. I wrote this after a terrible stomach flu I caught from
   my grandkids a couple years ago. At the moment, I am fine. I hope
   you are too.
