INVISIBILITY

Cast off from family
Kicked aside
Stowed where no one could find me

Lost amongst the clutter of a life stained with alcohol

New life formed from cast-offs
Weaving together over and over again
Multiple times
Stops and starts
Sputterings

Lost glass beads to identify Native Blood
Swirl up and around me
Scattering in the wind

Holding claim to my INVISIBILITY

The Knights in Green Armor

a very tiring day
took the bus to the lung doctor

got affirmation
my observations
of clueless ER doc
were correct

That man was on track

to 

kill

me

Respiratory therapists in green armor
came to my rescue
giving medicine

to open my lungs

The correct medicine
not ordered by
ER doc
