Dengue Fever

February 2020

i was

  dangling 

   dangling

    dangling

half dead

in the jungle

in Koh Phangan.

i was 

  ready

   ready

    ready

to leave

my human form

in Koh Phangan.

i was

  drifting

   drifting

    drifting

until 

i woke up

in Koh Phangan. 

i felt

  sweet peace

   sweet peace 

    sweet peace

white walls

hospital room

in Koh Phangan. 

It all dissolved, 

I was revived, 

in Koh Phangan. 

It all dissolved, 

I was revived, 

in Koh Phangan. 

Floppy and relaxed. 

A forceful surrender. 

Floppy and relaxed. 

The true art of surrender.
