Give Up And Lie Down (Revised)


The light above my desk gave up and died, shock probably,
caused by many documents on Strategy Against Poverty in
Africa Plan to translate, I was forced to take down the sun
screens against the window, protection for my eyes being
light-sensitive, to alleviate my struggle to read

The light was replaced overnight – now the window has to
be closed as I’ve lost the Prestik; today I’m ‘life-sensitive’
and my eyes hurt, yet with no Prestik I cannot put up my
sunscreens so I’m factually blind, where is a water
crisis or burst pipe when needed – just for today?

Best to buy what I need and put up the sun-screens, life is
difficult enough without adding more discomfort – the
headache is ready to kick in and my stomach threatens
with hunger pains, the great, sugar-low hunger caused
by allergy, the fever – feeling the heat – is already here

I might as well give up and lie down…
