Be Prepared

K Weber

Nobody warned me

about life. 

I did not know 

it was for external 

use only.

It seemed easier 

to hide inside,

without prolonged

exposure 

to sunlight.

I ran with scissors

as I ran the risk 

of serious damage 

to my eyes

while looking for you.

I inhaled 

high pressure 

steam often—

dizziness

may have occurred.

It was 

only when touched, 

that I found 

my heart

is a hot surface.

Everything

keeps spinning—

slippery when wet.

Take 

your anti-nausea pill

with food.

and caution.
