the plot has thickened
it's thicker than molasses
thicker than melted candy cane trees
thicker than three thinking thorny thors
thicker than the thicc messenger crow

I laughed at this. It's funny! I love hyperbole in poetry.
The formatting and the subject (hurting your leg) creates an interesting duality in the poem. The dramatic nature of the former and the normality of the latter conflict. I love especially how you've ended this. The omission of the 'elp' in help is a nice touch!
Thanks! Have you read Headache or Eyelash? Eyelash is the original, by Sheytato, I think.
I love how it feels like a diary entry from someone who is having cognitive issues, it makes me think he might be having deep leg thrombosis or something along those lines and might have had a heart attack or stroke at the end. He must have not moved around in a long time and then suddenly became active, I'm guessing. I really liked the poem! Short and sweet and to the point, it's a kind of talent to give someone an entire background story through so little text.
I'm glad you liked it! It's actually nothing so morbid, just a leg ache I get from my lame feet arches
I like to be dramatic, though.
