I read about a Sagittarius

originally from Sidcup

who had the hiccups

non-stop for 50 years

it surprised 1 day in late May

in early adulthood

& then persistently refused

to disappear

ironically they died

from athlete's foot after all that

but some end 

is yet in sight

as if you stand beside their tomb

beneath the haunted silver moon

ghost hiccups still emerge

into the restless depths of night

...
