Poems
Apr 2018
Kawasaki
“Kawasaki”
they called it:
recognizable partly
by strawberry tongue -
a poetic name
for a terrible symptom.
Imagine
skin that roses,
wheals, and
swells
coalescing
before peeling away
in impressive sheets
like parchment
febrile
for long days made longer
by the fussing
of a worried mother.
Imagine
raging
so hot and incandescent
that your heart
explodes.
