Repetition



My friend Kara posted this poem today. After confronting a couple of issues yesterday, the ending in particular spoke to me.


The word REPETITION demanded its own poem.

Reminded again
Everything repeats
Patience is needed
Easy answers? Ha!
That is a fantasy.
I confront the same
Time and time again.
Illness speaks in circles
On its own behalf.
Now—I listen…and learn.
