"RESTING"?? NO ...

 

"RESTING"?? ... NO ...

Dedicated To All My Dear M.E. Friends

Severe M.E. Week, August 2022

 

I resolutely refuse 
To use the term "rest" ...

It's wrong ...
Imprecise ...
And 
So inexact.

It sounds so gentle ...
Peaceful ... 
And 
Calm ...

As though 
Lying down is
A blessing ... 
A balm ...

Whereas, of course, it's
A total necessity ...

We have to lie down ...
Or we dizzy
And fall ...

It's not a lifestyle ...
It's not a choice ...

We ME would rather not 
Do it at all!!

What we're actually doing is ...
"Missing Out On Life" ...

So, I think "mooling"
Is precise and exact ...

And that's what I'm calling it,
Now and forever ...

"The cruelty of mooling" ...
Now that covers the fact!
