National Poetry Writing Month Six

Prompt

Diagnosed

Possibly this physician listens
"My head feels crushed"
As if air added extra weight
Only around him.

Maybe this professional studies
"My tendons torque"
As if points of pain amplified
Because of nightfall.

Perhaps this practioner doctors
"My rest is brief"
As if sleep's whys and hows were known
And dispensed to all.
