figure of speech – August 21

8.21.2016

a voice on the phone

says hello I have

your results

 

all is normal

all is well, benign

no change

 

a weight disappears

that I thought

was only

a figure of speech.

 

literal lift, lightness

of shoulders

neck, arms

 

remarkable.

 

I thought it was

only words

 

like

new life.
