Vision & Hearing

There are images

I could not imagine not seeing

and

be OK with any of it

Which is why,

Hearing,

or

Sight,

Boy do you miss it when it is gone.

When I developed

Optic Neuritis,

it was a blurriness in my right eye,

a dimming, a pain,

sensitivity to light.

and colors were gone,

then pretty much everything.

Due to the brain's skillful ways,

I was fooled into thinking I could see,

thinking I scratched my eye,

not that it did not work.

My left one pulled up the slack and told my self,

don't worry...

After doctor x 3 and High doses IV steroids

and

MRI, etc,

most of my vision returned.

It did leave me with a taste, a tidbit,

of losing one's sight.

My Bro asked what would be worse to lose?

Sight or hearing?

Now that one made my hairs hurt...

Last week I focused on

Music,

the binding force, the beat, the common language,

no interpreter needed.

This week,

some visuals.

Once I saw red again,

after not seeing it,

it really made me appreciate it all the more.
