Invisible responses are my own
when no one is around to see
the sudden jerk of my arm,
the blink on and off of consciousness
the drift in a cotton space
that weighs me down
for an hour or a day
with no reason that is visible.
The reason is epilepsy ~
~ tucked neatly inside my brain.
“One bears things because there is no alternative.”
~ C.J.Sansom, Sovereign
