LJI9 Week 19 - Migraine

Aug 26, 2014 13:46

This is my entry for this week of LJ Idol, Season 9. Please check out the entries of my fellow competitors and consider joining the therealljidol community. This week's topic was "Kindling." I wrote a prose poem, unfortunately based on my experiences from yesterday.

Nothing makes you appreciate the every day normal like pain. )

Ugh. I wish I couldn't relate to this. Perfect portrayal.

What an awful thing to experience! Fortunately, I don't have migraines - you do a great job describing the pain.

Oh, ouch. I've had one migraine, and I so feel for people who experience them at all regulary. :(

A sympathetic menagerie of animal faces turned towards you, for the moment you at last open lucid eyes.
This, though, was so very sweet. You and KFP are so lucky to have each other. :)

I like how you've approached this almost as a prose poem. You're a terrific journalist but I'm glad to read some of your more literary work, too!

Thanks! I thought of breaking it into lines, but that felt too organized to me for this topic.
