Neck nuisance

Debilitating neck pain

Inside my nerves, every time I

Sit at the desk; a mouse luring me, lurking for me

‘This is not your concern; the work will get done anyway’

Right side of the body giving itself to the weak sides of the world

Acrostically aggravated, thoughts healed

‘C’mon now, pull yourself

Together, everyone needs to see these words

Immobilised on the page’, disease

Onset, friction of my body against the slippery surface

Never drained, always boosted to the sharp shape
