From out of nowhere
The jolts begin…
As if plugged
Into an outlet…
Sudden electric shocks
Racing like strong currents…
Followed by the unnerving sensation
Falling, as if from high atop a cliff…
Thankful the legs are not involved
At least not at the moment…
Just the entire upper body
Twitching and jerking…
Which way is up?
Body reeling…
Best to curl up
Have walker close at hand…
Falling without moving
With electric current snaking…
No nerve left alone
At random, combinations charged…
How long will it last?
Duration is unknown…
Sometimes hours
Sometimes weeks…
Must lay low
Homebound for sure…
