While
administering
treatment to triggers
in the muscles
of
her fractured back
I traced every nerve
that
begged for mercy
crying & shaking
thru each
breath
like
a torture victim
she told me everything
that could possibly
be
said
about the pain
&
about the relief
as
nerves let out wails
thru her speech,
knots w/in the fiber of
muscle
balked w/ ease
&
bellowed each letter
of the word
agony
conveying
the
reality
personally
