20 days

20 days in the desert 
20 days in the rain
20 days in the wilderness
20 days in mental pain

40 pokes with a needle
40 tests of my blood
40 blood pressure changes
40 days of the flood

every time I get taken
for a test or a scan
for a new procedure
for a way out   a plan

I remember the oasis
of my life at home
full of people who love me
my rosetta stone
