Hack 'n Sack

Today (Friday) I had jazz band in the morning. I had to run to the bathroom w/ some serious diarrhea that would plague me for the rest of the day. My cough still persists and my voice sounds pretty horrid to boot. I barely made it through the day, after which I participated in a thing for the peace group. But I felt sick, so I went to urgent care and got a note excusing me from work today and tomorrow. Tomorrow, I will be waking up early to go to a jazz band competition in Mundelein, IL. Should be interesting. In the mean time, I'm at home hacking up a lung.

No music today. Maybe some poetry, though.

Crack the dawn wide open
Stretch the crevice into a gaping tear
The light pours in your soul out
Hacking, Aching, Breaking, Creaking, Stabbing
Body crumbles like a communion wafer
Dissolves into a filmy nothingness
Issue a violent shudder or three
Thick taste of M u c u S - disgustingly reassuring
Body sounds like a hollow tube, I'm a human digiridoo
Laf, Cough, Cough, painful humor
Throat issues cracked crosscutsawsongs - ghhhr ghhhr
Glowing EyeOrbs attach to the Grotesque. A beacon in the night
Pierce through the night like shrill bird screams
Spirit in his body cage never stops fighting.
The testament
