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.
