A Turning of the Season by Adam Hollingsworth

A Turning of the Season

by Adam Hollingsworth

Just relax,

The numbness hits first;

Than an empty mind, followed

By a coughing burst.

Your lack of feeling

Is all part of the reason.

Just a strange sensation, that

Radiates symmetrical improvisation.

 

You are receding;

Clear of thought

And feeling.

Any of the

Strange sensations

Just all part of the

Procedure.

A numb reliever; opiate-

Like receivers. A middle-

Path conceiver, and what

A lovely thing

All the turnings

Of the
Seasons.
