Close your eyes

she was a bellysleeper the girls were too

                                              easy buttrubbing

rubbing hers it wouldnt be long he could hear it in the rhythm of her breathing

as he rubbed her he thought of a passage he read the night before McCarthy Outer Dark

                                                                                               “Something had passed on the road and he lay huddled against the chill of pending dawn with his arms crossed on his chest in that attitude the living inflict upon the dead and he listened but he could hear nothing.”

had the character listened closer he may have heard

                                                         Wake up.

So doc I treated my shingles with strains of cannabis  Sought those which limited the headhigh THC  Tetrahydrocannabinol for bodyhighs Cannabi-diol CBD Cannabi-gerol CBG Cannabi-nol CBN

                                                                                                    Took a while to getem straight

You chose to not take antivirals, valacyclovir, Valtrex, or famciclovir, Famvir, or Gabapentin, Neurontin, for significant pain?

It was significant  Fortunately I have a high pain threshold

                                                                     No 

I did not recognise I had shingles until Id exceeded the seventytwo hour window

Another held condition Better Living through Chemistry Im not a fan

                                                                         I am a big fan of my bodys abilities an natural less synthesised treatments a fan of drugs not drugs ifya catch my drift

doc smiled he thought he would

                              I appreciate that.   How’d it go?

It was painful until I began taking the cannabisesexcuse my elaboration of cannabis  its uncountable mass noun  Im a real sucker for words hence my bias for cannabises

nodding  Do you think if you recognized shingles earlier you would have sought a physician?

    Thas a good question  Im still wondering

                                                    I have a unique relationship with pain

It keeps me in the present  aware

                                     An rather than discount it with painkillers I like to find its top Without it an without feeling it diminish I feel Im cheating myself

Diminishing  Then I can anesthetise it

However you’re playing catch-up, playing from behind.

Perhaps Is another way of looking at it

                                Though not my way Me an Frank an anyone else whose covered it

Would you say you’re a difficult patient?

Jah  An no

               I try hard to be patient with physicians because they are you are my employee

Employee?

To employ or not

That’s a unique way of looking at doctors, health, and medicine.

Ive heard told

                  Thasaid for my education Ive learned CBG mother of all cannabinoids precursor to THC an CBD  an ideal anti-inflammatory CBN Ideal for taking in the evening for its mood an sedative effect I coud finally sleep or rather began enjoying bouts of uninterrupted sleep Its not been until this past week of six weeks tha I exceeded five straight hours

    Sounds like hell.

Sounds like youre my doc
