THE TRIP

I have taken a trip to Hell
Nothing here turned out well
Abandoned, left all alone
No computer, friends or telephone

Left in the hands of total strangers
In a land fraught with dangers
Relying on the kindness of others
Have found many sisters and brothers

On a trip that was supposed to be fun
Encountering illness is all I've done
What doesn't kill me makes me strong
And will keep me home where I belong
