just a hint of fever
and he recoils
recalls
when first the malaria
hit him like a
a dump truck full
of iron garden gnomes
left him shivering
sweating
swimming
in pain deeper
than the greatest
Great Lake
before it broke and
he was smashed
flat
left crapulent and woozy
a still stagnant pond
where parasites
permanently
petulantly
patrol
awaiting their turn
to make another visit
and say hello again hello
