ODE TO A FLUSH.

 December 2nd

 

Hot flush go away

Why do you always have to come and play? 

Waking to find you have arrived is always an unpleasant surprise. 

To go from hot, to damp to freezing cold is as wanted as a piece of mould!

When will it ever end (now that I’m on the mend) ? I had hoped it would go but oh no!

Daytime flushes are almost worst, removing layers is a curse. Then getting dressed again, is a right old pain. 

The shiny head it can be said, is not a look to undertake. It’s an unpleasant sight to see for family, friends and me. 

Sage has helped but not enough to stop me having to use my cuff to wipe a away a sweaty day. 

But as I lie here at 3.29 (am) I can hear a wee bird song that has help this little poem along. 

But all I really wanted to say was I hate you hot flush just FUCK OFF and go away. 

 

Look at me 2 posts in 2 days.  I’ve discovered writing in the Notes app on my phone in the middle of the night.  Might mean i write more as it’s always in the night i have my best thoughts.
