Mesmerizing My Mind

*
A night of distress, rolling over and over in bed,
hunger pains after eating indicating the new dish
I tried contains things triggering the allergy, disco-
ver Nici is still up because she is stuck, cannot
open documents she has to print

All my hard work in vain, she cries, I come to her
rescue by saving all in another format, to her
delighted surprise her technologically impaired
mother fixes her problem, inability to sleep was
to the advantage of my child

Whenever the allergy proves useful, I am resigned
to my cross, without it, I would not have bothered to
write, would have been a successful administrator
like my colleagues, without the fears and anxieties
that increase restlessness

Forcing me to try and capture thoughts and feelings in
my own words, creating immeasurable regard for the
personification of poetry, though lacking the capacity
to assimilate all aspects of life, I adore his cascading
music mesmerizing my mind…
