Resilient
The poets heart
Words we use
Turning pain to art
Chronic stress
A syndrome no less
Our muses behold
The Mother's breast
Fight or flight
Sympathetic states
We resolve upon
Our creative slates
Breaking through
Rising above
Poetry becomes our strongest drug
When the fever flares
Word are but aspirin
And the poem becomes our cure
An observation I made while
living here,
on HP!
