Poison IvyA Poem by Farmgirl
Poison Ivy where do I begin your itch crawls on top of my skin
your irritating and I cannot resist to scratch and then once I do with the spreading there is no turning back or taking away that only then I'm left with regretting wishing I hadn't done it but for me in that brief moment to me the relief to itch was worth it then the oil like thrown on a wildfire substance inflames and engulfs all of those places i itched for so long and then you begin to grow on the body in number even up higher and down below everywhere I scratched the oil like a bomb exploded all over by then the rash had spread but that itch just that 1 scratch for relief at that time was worth it until I look in the mirror and I realized that I look like a leper or someone with psoriasis all over and it's discouraging and then I'm left thinking that itch that 1 scratch just wasn't worth it I was stupid to not resist your irritation I should have just let you remain a pestilence for a moment just like you sometimes my husband And as I'm waiting and praying for the irritation and pestilence of oils to dry up and finally be over to give me sweet relief from the urge to itch all over it begins again more and worsens my condition further and I think to myself again the itch was just so intense I just couldn't resist the urge further and now all that work and money spent on alcohol and creams just seems worthless and wasteful and though a scolding hot shower will suffice it for a moment then I get out and cold air touches it and the itch starts all over oh how I'm enduring a different kind of torture Somebody relieve me from my hands that just can't resist itching tape them together for me so I can start healing I'm creating a longer term misery this just isn't my week or month or something I tell you if its not one thing it's another but this is my consequence I believe in reaping what I sew you see and this week my husband made me angry he kept provoking me and we'll I only tolerated it for so long and then I punched him I did not resist the urge to avoid it so yes this is my consequence
It is what I get for thinking for hitting him in the face in anger I would get away with it and that hitting him to shut up attacking would be worth it
