Visceral Pain

Deep Sickening Systemic

Whole body feels off Subject to shock Body senses danger

Sick so easy A biological response To the body's protectiveness

My nervous system Is constantly on high alert As I experience

Visceral Pain.

This poem is about my chronic pain and was written as practice for a poetry slam.

Joe Snappe

Learn by heart: tap a gap

Whole body off

To the body's
