Panacea for the stung

So today,

yesterday's sore-ish ankle, turned

into flaming immobility,

necessitating

some early horizontal-ity.


In addition to the joys of comfort stops,

cooking, and comfort stops,

the enforced rest afforded

a catch-up on reading and viewing,

and the dual delight of seeing,

and hearing, after ages, your Panacea.


Words, better medicine by far,

than than any analgesic!


 

Chris Wardle (Hamza) works at being happy and grateful while writing with an eye for wonder, a taste for questions, and a sense of proximity to the Sacred. Grateful for the support and encouragement of the Oxford Poetry Library in improving his craft, 2024 sees his work emerging more widely in journals and anthologies.
