Today is painful I must say
The pain in my back’s here to stay
I want to go to my small home
I want to go rest in my room
To sleep away this painful day

My boss tells me that I must stay
For me to leave there is no way
I still have two hours and some
Today is painful…

All I want is to go and lay
In my bed and sleep through the day
In my comfy master bedroom
There is no time that is too soon
Today is painful…

Thanks. I had to do a second one, because my first one had practically no meter. I'm hoping this one's better.

Dear, sweet Bobby,
Thank you. I'm sure I will feel better as soon as I can get into a hot bath at home. I've been dealing with this pain for six years now. Thanks to military doctors. Long story short, they only did one ultra sound in the beginning of my last trimester, so I ended up pushing for 4 hours before they did a c-section and it tilted my pelvis so I have an A-symmetrically enlarged nerve in my back between my L5 and S1 vertibrate (the two that connect my pelvis to my spine).

rachaelfuchsberger - yikes, a pain in the back is worse than a pain from the boss...

hello Rachel, I think if you can't work go home and have some sleep, if your boss is intelligent he can understand that, you haven't to bear pains while working...  

best wishes

sounds like both pains are pretty much in the same place?  Guess a ride on the rigid frame harley down a bumpy road is out?

Get an inversion table,  they work wonders on back problems.

Your poem on the other hand, needs no work at all.  

Nice,
Tracey.

Thank you all for your suggestions and comments.

Stranger, a ride on a Harley is NEVER out of the question. As my mother taught me, "If it ain't a Harley, it ain't a bike."
