Covered



          I lie still
          covered in pain & exhaustion
          busyness all around
          and in my mind
          poetry happens

  2. Thank you, Tamara.
    Yes, I'm pleased to be able to make something of beauty from some of my harder experiences. Only eight months of treatment left!
    Best, Kirsten x
