Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Fever Exchange

Off to Alaska I did go

To strike it rich finding some gold.

Winter came, it began to snow.

A cabin sheltered me from cold.

But all the snow piled up so that

For several months I was stuck in

The tiny wooden habitat,

Wanted to jump out of my skin.

Enough necessities but not

WiFi, radio or T.V.

So bored awake, so slept a lot,

Getting more and more stir crazy.

Gone was the gold fever I had,

Replaced by cabin fever, bad.
