shingles
hitting someone hard
in sheer pain
needing relief and respite
gruesome reality
lacking strength
energy annihilated
sorrowful amount of pain
RAIN
River dancers on the shingles
Attenuating rhythmic shifts
Icy shivery down neck tingles
Nuances of seasoned riffs

it is never a great day
to have pink eye or shingles or hives
Every time I get these maladies
it is an unhappy reminder that
today will not be a great day
I hear them on the
Roof of my house, the flying
Witches land on my
Shingles, laughing and cackling
Wishing ill to all within
Russell Sivey
The shingles were taking a beating,
As tabbies and hounds kept on meeting.
They slid down the slate
At a terrible rate,
While the terrified owners were fleeing.
There was a roofer named Bob Ringles
Who liked to go to dances for singles.
There he met his soul mate
Who OK'd a wedding date.
'Til she learned Bob had the shingles.
I know this will get better
because I cannot fathom it feeling any worse
although my eighty-eight year old mother put
bleach on her shingles.
That was probably worse.
The TV is off
And cannot tell
About the splatter.
The weather forecaster
Will not break the idyll
Of hearing rain fall on shingles
While I, sheltered
In your passion,
Imagine waterfalls.
Taking the vaccine for shingles
Two shot series, not a single
They say the second more than tingles
Makes you not want to intermingle
That’s okay, I’ll write a jingle
About an empty can of Pringles
No building long survives Time’s hurricane,
It scatters shingles, rends each roof
And bares the rafters to the rain,
The skeleton of walls stands proof
That nothing fashioned by mere Man endures aloof.
The Spanish flu started everything off
Now we are excited by a cough
Typhoid Mary, regular gal
Please keep six feet, okay, pal?
Measles, mumps, rubella.
Aids and HIV
And shingles too
Chickenpox
Virus
Sick
You must check on the net these amazing art visuals
They'll blow your mind and pop your roofing shingles
Incredible can't describe
Marvels of which I scribe
My mind hasn't recovered from these fantastic images
New shingles refresh a roof,
a sagging ceiling drywalled,
a cracked window repaired,
a busted door reinstalled.
When cooler heads do prevail,
arguments can be resolved.
But words of anger and hate,
once spoken can’t be recalled…
Serpigo, roseola, German measles, flu.
Shingles, chicken pox, pandemic Corona boo hoo.
Chilling fever, chest pains, aches all the way through.
Muscle fatigue, slap cheek, and mumps poking you.
I feel pretty great today. How about you?
Poems are coming slowfully.
For I am most woefully
And truly most woefully
In the hospital doe-fully
Itching my skin until bleeding
More potent pills I am pleading
Poems are decidedly misleading
Me out of this stupor I’ll be needing
on lonesome journey
pick shingles of life from
shore of time
with poised dreams
build castle tsunami won’t shatter
making memory debris

Brothers on the beach,
Seaside in reach,
The two amigos,
Blood brother bros,
Fraternals and kin,
Pals and companions,
Sidekicks and playmates,
Coastline siblings,
Buddies in the shingles,
A forever brother band,
Golden memories of the strand.
Listen to poem:
The moon was rising
pulling at the sea
– toying with it,
gutsy and playful.
I felt the commotion
racing me, tugging at me
– drenching me.
Right up ‘til tides ebbed,
baring again the
hard shingles of life.

I have one goal every day
It is to enjoy something about my life
When my eyes were swollen shut I enjoyed my puppy
When my left ankle would not let me walk
I enjoyed my tv shows
When my shingles were acting up
I enjoyed my pistachio pudding
No matter what is going on,
ENJOY SOMETHING
The scratching wakes me up
Ridiculously unsatisfying
Yet notoriously put there by shingles
Or excruciatingly painful allergen.
A scream for help
Time is in my way
Sorry I sid not sneak my Excedrin pm into hospital
Morphine is not cutting it.
Each time more insistent
On a more potent drug

To see old relatives can get you thinking
if your health will also soon be sinking.
Will you get their shingles, bunions or bad knees?
Will you get dementia or need some surgeries?
And if afflicted, will you face it well or will you cave?
Or might you be the lucky one to go
"relatively" pain-free. . . to the grave?

Respite

THREE WITH ONLY ONE aim

Laughter
I have no shingles, brick, nor mortar being that I am sans a home, a FAMILY and all the rest

I immediately call my doctor, demanding he prescribe this to me.
June is only but a dream away
As the ice upon the shingles stay
Chamomile tea in the winter snow
Keeps the frozen from my soul
For tonight is the night we find Jack
Rain nor snow shall hold us back
Over the icy hills we sleigh with speed
Searching for Jack where ever he be
Till no nose is nipped this Christmas Eve
