Seven Year Itch
*
your seven year itch;
flare of eczema infected
raw sore and weeping
*
your shattered hour glass;
irritating grains of sand
debriding old skin
*
your fingernail scratch;
sacrificial blood letting
scarification
*
your allergic rash;
self-fulfilling prophecy
psycho somatic
*
my fragility;
remedied with wisdom’s balm
time passing quietly
*
