Premium Member Sleep Apnea: The Trail of The Silent Killer
It's been ten years since I've been diagnosed with this DISORDER, with that said, it's NOT a DISEASE. As an active kid, I had damaged a minute portion of my TRACHEA which is the wind-pipe, from where that collaborated function that's called the ESOPHAGUS, carries food/liquid down a [kissing cousin NOT twin] pipe called a...

Premium Member In Death
Death comes close in the night when shadows grow and sleep envelopes, relaxing guards who snore slumped in corners their spears and shields useless on the ground, their dinner crumbs of cheese and bread just laying there for the rats to nibble. Amid the sleepers and nibblers Death glides like a mist; oppressive and still, and dead leaving a taste, a...

Premium Member We Die Every Night
Diving deep in the pond of the sub-consciousness I die everything night, you die every night too This is our way of rejuvenating the body This may sound crazy, eerily or even spooky, However, this is absolutely or definitely true Our body makes a special trip to correct the mess Which takes place from a certain time to the other We die...

Dream Machine
I love the sound of the name Dream Machine, It sounds like a Harley all painted and mean, And ridden by bikers who are all dressed in leather, Who ride around proudly in sunshiny weather. But I doubt that a motor bike’s what you are getting, To take one in bed would cause anguish and sweating, And in truth it wouldn’t...

Sleep
To understand this unsolved mystery, transcends ability to grasp its scope, involving more than simple inquiry of mental test or scientific grope. Most nights you are a force I can't resist, when day's fatigue exceeds what one can bear, like being stuck in fog or hazy mist, where only you can rescue and repair. Infrequently you hesitate, elude, withholding needed dormancy and rest, perhaps because...

Maybe It Was Sleep Apnea
Zenobia Jackson told Officer Murphy that her husband, Rufus, was 73 years old and "a wonderful man when he was awake" but for the past year he had been jerking "something terrible" during his sleep and had kept waking her up. He'd swing his arms, she said, like those martial arts men he liked to...

Sleep Apnea Or Agent Orange: Let's Hear It For Monsanto

Apnea
Battling at the thought’s end. Ruined cities. The last survivors were helped to escape together with their unborn children. Eyes tossing nervously. Fears floating on schizophrenic reality. A ghost passed by resembling her, yet it is not possible she survived of the massacre – she risked her life, bet our happiness. Memories, naked, spring from the soul’s catacombs to remind us the youth’s...

Bear Winter Apnea
The sleep I desire is for resting of the mind. The sleep I desire will happen when I am tire. The sleep I desire is now. ______________________| For Amy Green Critter Tanka Contest April 11, 2014...

Apnea Consequences
Segregated solitude misfires synaptic connections, and I meander around spectre conversations in autistim-like nightmares, wondering if I can learn your language. Memories are like ice, reducing every day until only a puddle remains, a mote of déjà vu, but no substance, just damp resonance of a decaying thought. I fight amnesia without knowing the battle plans, straining to hold that piece of land; that piece of me. Night’s...

Premium Member Sleep Apnea
I could hardly breathe, death was in the making. As the in and out slowed to out, expelling a long slow breath, I was ready for what was to come. In the far distance something familiar, more of a feeling than a memory. Enough awake now, I knew it was a bathroom call. As I stumbled to that little room, all I...
