Ring Around The Roses

The Bubonic plague/ Black Death was one of the deadliest pandemics, in the world.

My skin in tainted

Bruised, painful, and diseased

A laceration, filled with pus

A laceration, enclosed by a crimson halo

The wounds are all over my body

They are making it hard for me to lay down

Whether I lay down on my side

Back, or on my Stomach

There is so much pain that I have to endure

I do not know how much of this suffering, I can take

The sores are starting to burst now

They are causing me great pain 

The wounds are making me feel disgusted

Why won't the wounds, go away?

[Hello, Goodbye]

Authentic expression of a truly malignant experion of real time body decomposition. To truly imagine such a horrendous illness is ineffable. Good narration of the feelings that surely must have been felt. The absolutely despondency and unquestionable hopelessness.

Goodness, this is quite descriptive of the plague and you have a wonderful sense of portraying a horrible disease. It's quite tragic, too, and I do like the character's style of voice!
