~Wynters Choke


The other morning I woke up choking
probably on thoughts, worried kind.
Or maybe I sighed just a bit too much
and the air trapped my feelings behind.
I grieve in my yearning, I mourn to express.
I utter to send forth a sound.
But all that was heard was a wheezing of sorts,
as the air inhaled, hardly was found.
Eventually coughed after 3 tries or more
and all that came out was some spit.
For you see I have always salivated too much,
and this flaw is so hard to admit.
I nightmare my death, and it always in scenes,
leaves a feeling of terror, no joke.
I am sure that when death comes, my headstone will read
Maureen died from a slight Wynters Choke....

Maureen, I loved the poem...but I hope that doesn't happen for a long long time.
