Off sick-- edit 2

[Blake]

I went through a full box of tissues today.
Now giant cotton popcorn overflows
a pail-turned-trashcan, resting
where my feet would be if they weren't
curled over orange plush,
twisting around each other, struggling
to keep ten toes from turning
into small frozen cherries,
like the ones my sisters love to eat
on scorching days,
far away from this one.

I can relate to this one today as I have been quite sick myself the last few days (but unfortunately I'm still at work.)

I like the giant popcorn line, that was clever.
