The MonSter of MayhemS

The MonSter of MayhemS may rattle my cage.
With treMorS primordial, he bares his rage.
Till nerves are a MeSs,
In full-blown M.S.,
And athletic skills overnight disengage.
This whamMy of woeS will allow none to quit,
Though stress seismological he may commit.
As Myelin shedS,
Surpassing all dreads,
No reMedieS ready Make Struggles legit.

  1. Well done, and so painful. I know a few men who suffer from this disease. One was very athletic. He has decided to continue with sports and coaching for as long as he can and to be grateful for every joyous moment with his family. His faith keeps him going, I guess.
