Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Narrative

Notes About The Poem

- It Is Boring -

Freezing ...
in my bones
Purple fingers and toes
Twenty-eight finger bones X two
Twenty-eight toe bones X two
A large base with pain
Stiffness, can not be bent
Six hundred muscle cells
will not cooperate with the brain

Next minute;

Burning heat
Reading glasses ... fogging
Drops of sweat in the forehead
Red fingers and toes
The eyes sting
The letters doubles
Throat dry and sore
Cough that feels suffocating
Rib bones turned inside out
like an umbrella in storm

Feel ;

Trapped ... need oxygen
Parts of the motor nerve fiber
out of balance
The body feels ...
as a old donkey                                                                                                .
I have no patience                                                                                     .
to have the flu ... it's boring                                                                .
"Flue" mean fly on Norwegian                                                         .
A fly buzzing in the window frame                                               .
                                                                                          .
       .... let me out ...(!)   .                                         .
               ... it's spring          .          .           .           .
                                                  .
