OMG! It’s the Most Agonizing Awful Pain Ever!!!!!!!!!

 

(Have you got an aspirin?)

 

Unless it involves writhing on the floor

(Or another appropriate surface)

Feeding the ducks, explosions behind the eyes

Flailing at the end of a cosmic centrifuge

 

Shrieking in pain hearing a butterfly

Floating around some twenty miles away

Grasping at bottles of futile agony pills

And begging for a merciful end to life

 

Unless it’s all of these, and sometimes more -

 

It’s not a migraine
