rainy day

Real rain. 

Fake flame. 

OMG another day 
At the clinics. 

When Army people in Germany 

Go off base into the towns, 

They call it  “Going on the Economy!”

Don’t know why they prefer that. 

You might say, for example 

“Susie went on the Economy

And found these things …”

So I was on the economy 

All day yesterday. 

My headaches and tinnitus 

Are back. Like bad. Like Advil. 

Always base of the neck area. 

And behind the eyes.
