I got it bad
it was all over my legs
my arms, my neck, my chest
in between my fingers and toes
and the itching
colossal
monumentous
sanity shaking
and after days of
oatmeal baths
and calamine lotion
I finally went to the doctor
to get some meds
and it slowly, gradually
began to clear.
Those weeks were
the most challenging
of my young life
but the lesson
was invaluable
sometimes
all you can do
is endure.
