RISING TO THE OCCASION ...

RISING TO THE OCCASION ...

For All My Dear M.E. Friends

 

I try, even now, to rise to the occasion ...

If something's essential ... to see that it's done ...

Post-dentist, I collapsed, and melted away ...

Like a block of ice left out in the sun ...

The Good Man dubbed this "The Souffle Syndrome" ...

As I moved, collapsed, between bed and chair ...

Hoping, against hope, for "mild" P.E.M. ...

And hoping, so hard, for no crash and no flare ...
