My body is tossed about by violent jolts that fling my unwilling and powerless self about, a helpless prisoner within. Even without breath my chest still contorted, making the pain sting, poke, and **** with every up and down. Of course, I am afflicted with hiccups. I put my small sufferings into poetic sequence in an unconscious attempt at being rid of them. They're gone. Going through the short poem, Correcting little errors. Up Down Jolt Sting **** They're back Of course, I am afflicted with hiccups. Hiccups are *****
