Aging, I am
and disabled,
unreliability
trending
Escape is proposed
my oozing scars
beg a stand
discover determination
This slumbering
has become impulsive
need discipline
to quiet the pain
I am whiny
self-mothering
counselling bedrest
prone to coddling
need to shake off
this disoriented
weakened state –
escaped is proposed.
Nicely written..

It’s exactly the question mark in your writing, vulnerability, and reaching for more that makes your writing so distinct and true. ✍️💥
