An Outbreak of Monotonitis

by Nicole M. - Gemini

I imagine
  they're all suffering from
monotonitis
 as well their doctor

the same four diseases walk through the door
  heartache
  complaining
  love
  deeper meaning

but maybe
  this is a misdiagnosis
maybe
 that's all that exists

is it crucial
  to their survival
to dwell in such hollow places
there's a reason
  it all goes
 blah blah blah blah
what infection
  has it contracted?

possibly
  the infection
is not in the mouth
  but in the ears.

Reason for writing:

    if I'm going to have Ph.D in my name, might as well start acting like one, right?
