...as the throat is sore, the glands are swollen, and the nose seems to want to run through every street in Chicago...so much for a very compromised immune system, thanks to the bacteria Cryptosporidium and John Norquist, the former Mayor of Milwaukee, WI (my hometown) who eventually resigned.
Sooooo, I wrote, as I am apt to do:
Day and night
Sirens scream in the night:
Up and down this street
Of this, the northernmost neighborhood
Of Chicago.
I wake, though,
Knowing they aren't coming for me.
For which I thank the Creator:
Once.
Twice.
And again.
