Barometric Pressure As the pressure drops Like a stone from a tower My health flops By each minute and hour I lock up Slowing down Drinking my death cup I flounder and drown Unable to function Unable to comprehend Unable to function Unable to live A robotic zombie Floating along Unstable and wonky This is my song A song of lostness A song of worthlessness A song of smallness A song of nervousness How long will this go on This morbid journey Until my symptoms are gone And I am back in lifes tourney Functioning normal Thinking and talking Not feeling abnormal Functioning and walking Living a normal life A life of normality No continuous strife Just a life of vitality Once again I am patient and await The barometric train To steam forward reducing its weight Arriving at my station Which it always does Creating a new period of gestation And my symptoms fizz I walk and wake from my stupor As the train passes Slowly reducing my stooper Not slow and thick as molasses But normal and bright Clear headed My symptoms in flight Completely broken and shredded Back in the living Where life is good Another season of thanksgiving Living as I should

Barometric Pressure Nightmare
This is my latest book. It is personal. I suffer greatly when the barometric pressure drops.
When the atmospheric pressure drops, it influences my body. The swollen tissue presses against my joints, making them very painful and difficult to move. My arthritis in the ankle and right and left legs from knee and hip replacements and my eleven blood clots make it even worse when the barometric pressure changes. Blood flow is reduced due to constricted veins, which result in dizziness and confusion. When this happens, I become lethargic, not wanting to talk or socialize. This leads to me becoming grumpy and gruff.
Barometric Pressure Nightmare
My Old Friend
I missed you
My good friend
We can share a pew
And transcend
Transcend my feelings
My feelings of obscurity
In all routine dealings
Reducing my security
Fall left to right
Shift backwards
The sun so bright
Unable to say words
Where do you hide
In the summertime
Where do you reside
Rushing back time after time
To disrupt my life
Bewitching me
Causing such strife
Not letting me flee
Fleeing the troubles
Fleeing the nuisance
Fleeing the intangibles
Fleeing the assurance
Assurances of stability
Assurances of normality
Assurances of survivability
Assurances of congeniality
I become tired
I become annoyed
I become angered
I become destroyed
Hard to accept
This reoccurring crap
Not well kept
In this sinister trap
Trap of denial
Trap of betrayal
Trap of carnal
Trap of abnormal
This is not just
Give me relief
Can you adjust
And reduce your grief
You must
No other choice
Or you will rust
And lose your voice
Stay steady
Bulk up
Reduce your anxiety
Accept your cup
Slave
Slave I am a slave To my thoughts Stuffed in a cave I had my shots Stuck here Wasting away Not a seer Wishing to stray I stayed for a girl And her daughter We had a twirl Not living water I stayed for my mother Who is her golden years Illnesses one after another Outliving her peers I stayed for my health I fight craziness No problems with wealth Persistent haziness A new phenomenon Snuck up on me A black swan A dead sea I can not inhale I can not exercise I can not exhale I can not energize Doctors do not know What is the matter Go with the flow Endless chatter Stuck in this place Waiting it out My time and space I have doubt Doubt of today Doubt of relationship Doubt of future Doubt of fraternity A slave to my existence Waiting for it to end I am leading the residence Nothing to pretend My relationship is over My health is questionable My mother will die My life is debatable Pretend I might Fight I must Chase the light All in or bust Fix what is wrong Seek the solutions Remain strong Proclaim resolutions Resolution to try Resolutions to strive Resolution to fly Resolution to live Might change your expectations Might change your attitude Might rearrange your foundation Might rearrange your fortitude It is not finished It never will be It is not diminished It is what you see See the good See the opportunities See your livelihood See your communities There is a view For you to move ahead It is up to you You are not dead
End of Game
I have been there Struggling to win Throwing up a prayer Taking it on the chin A strong punch I worked so hard And I feel the crunch My soul and body marred As in the game So many opportunities To win with fame For our communities But it is not finished You may feel it is Do not be diminished Or end with a fizz Take stock in your abilities And know you are strong Reduce your liabilities And sing a happy song There is more time to comeback Life has not ended Pushback and attack Everything will be splendid Remember your durability And your unique traits Hopefulness is not unnecessary futility But a date with our fates Decide to fight For your hereafter The day is bright Sunny with laughter React to your circumstances Enjoy the hear and now Take your chances Stay behind the plow Make your rows straight A strenuous chore No time to wait You can score
