After starting HIV meds,
it appears mosquitos have no interest in my blood.
I guess I should be glad.
How self-consumed I must be
to see it as rejection.

This one makes me think of the movie “Holding the Man” on Netflix.
This poem is an emotional powerhouse! Your final lines will stay with me for a long time!
This made me smile ruefully.
Clever and interesting title. I failed at guessing the content from it. The delivery was impactful and like Heather said, emotional.
Five lines to deliver so much emotion!! Wow, that was well penned.
