Ode To Lyme

                                    Ode To Lyme

          "I'm tired"

          "Oh, I get tired too "

         My neck hurts

         oh, I know how that is, I hurt my neck last year.

        My joints hurt

        I have arthritis in my knee

        I get heart palpitations

        I get them too

        I keep having low grade fevers.

        My kid has a fever

        I feel like I have the flu.

        I had that a little while ago.

        I can't remember

        I forget things all the time

        At the same time I feel like I just want to sit and stare, can't get up to get a drink for
        45 minutes; have shoulder, arm, finger, and leg spasms. I hit the wall of fatigue and
       sleep.

        I don't

        I know.
