Pneumonia

by lealdous

woke up 2pm this morning squandered all the afternoon building magic fortresses, high on rainbow rock til my eyes got sore and i got dizzy from a sunny, golden-yellow glare opened up the window, let in the draft let in the air (and risked pneumonia) and I started thinking clearly then, I started thinking when, the deathly cold, cursed, no-remove, fresh air got to my brain and i sat there by the window kept it open, 'spite the wind and rain just following my train of thought (and risked pneumonia) i felt that neither ice nor fire can do me harm but why is it right now i feel too cold yet still too warm feel like a fire can freeze me, and a breeze may bring me heatstroke, feels like some sick fucking joke but i started thinking clearly then, i started thinking clearly when my temperature went down and i got to thinking, and looking back to before cold felt warm and it came to me, i realized... (i didnt catch pneumonia)
