Mary Benim Poet I do not know?

Yesterday

YESTERDAY
I FELL.
NOT A BAD FALL-
SCRAPES AND A
SKINNED KNEE
AN INCONVENIENCE
REALLY.

BUT...
LAST WEEK
I SUDDENLY
TRIPPED
ON FLAT PAVEMENT
AND SO, I JOKED
ONLY ME!

TODAY
I THINK
MAYBE THE LUPUS
OH NO!
NOT THE LUPUS
BUT, THEN I THINK
LUPUS.

Mary Benim April 25, 2010 at 6:53 AM THE POEM 'YESTERDAY' IS THE TRUE EMOTIONS I EXPERIENCED AFTER REALIZING THAT MY FALL MIGHT HAVE INDEED BEEN CAUSED FROM THE PROGRESSION OF MY LUPUS. TERRIFYING THOUGHT...
