Twisted Spine

I look at my X-ray

Gentle S-spine

When I said I wanted curves

This is not what I said I had in mind

Ican stand taller than anyone

They can judge behind my twisted spine

Never to me, always behind me

A Janus

And they call me twisted

What irony

Here’s word(s) number 2 given to me by @eabhie who has scoliosis. I know “twisted spine” is two words and I asked for one but it was a cool topic to write about, and she’s from my old school so I said I’d sort her out 😜
