Lying in bed
on the flat of my back,
cursing my luck
and the latest
sciatica attack.
I can’t sit down
or stay on my feet
so, I stare out
the window at the
rain and the sleet.
The only thing
working is my
overactive brain
imagining scenarios
I find hard to explain.
Like if colour
is such a beautiful thing
what can explain
the trouble it can bring?
Where do we go to
when we die?
could it really be
a palace in the sky?
The answers to
these questions
I can’t work out
but it passes the time
until I am up and about.

Sorry to know it disables you so. Have you had it analyzed in depth? Just to be certain

I’ve had that pain. I understand and empathize. But I went to Dr. Schurr at Stanford. He was “Schur” he could fix it. He Schur did! It was a bone spur at L4-L5 pinching a nerve – that was what caused it. He removed the spur and I’ve been pain-free ever since. Do not hesitate to go have your problem analyzed! I’ll pray for you!
