Wavering Light

Calves spasm in the night warm, wet, wavering candlelight. Western congestion, returned plight, the drone of insects, the mosquito’s bite; Infected, reflected, so much fright! Warm wet, wavering candlelight. Calves spasm in the night. Calm balm, unsanitary redress; old quandary, old mess; stomachs tension diaphragms fright; Warm, wet wavering Hope for the Light.
