For the the 'Plagued by Memories' Poetry Contest of Ink Empress
Cursed I am plagued by things of the now: daily physical aggravations for which doctors have given me no cure. Memories can’t afflict me the way my body has been bedeviled by ailments which do not even have a name. I suppose I can say the memory of a physician having injected me four times with a substance that gives some people dire side effects haunts me to this day. Cursed is this world by doctors who are meant to do no harm.
