Iron Lung
-
First Night in
Semiconscious.
Unable to speak.
Tubes…
One in the nose.
One in the neck
Elegance and beauty are replaced by palsy and torpor
On fire with pain.
Throat muscles rendered useless
Her long slender neck is marred by a raw sunken hole
A metal fixture holding a rubber tube
A slice in the throat allowed the phlegm to be drawn out
Saving her from drowning in her own mucus.
First night in
