Just another symptom, they tell me,
this pervasive, overpowering smell
souring everything around me. It sinks
like rage into floors and hand-woven
Indian rugs, poisoning symmetry with
its uneven stench. Just another misfire
in this mysterious brain. Another kind
of pain. Another unfamiliar visitor from
the understory of incomprehensible
illness. Another of the same.
