So close to the half-way badge, and yet so far away. Oh well. I've already produced more poems than I did with my first attempt at NaPo, and have definitely written more than I otherwise would have this month. I'll consider that a success even if I can't get the last few in on time

They say that energy is conserved,
biological systems adapted
to use every single ATP molecule
that passes through the body.
So why do I feel that my body
is a vacuum that sucks energy
even faster than it can be made,
leaving me tied to my bed --
My covers my armor,
mattress the life support,
pillow the only cushion
for my fragile condition.
