Vertigo

A sudden turn of my head is all it takes

To make my head spinning like a top

What a difference vertigo makes

Like I am high on some kind of dope.

 

Doctors said it is due to my ears

A peripheral vestibular disorder

They said I have no need for fears

It may be just a sign that I am growing older.

 

When vertigo strikes out of the blue

My equilibrium gets out of control

How it happens I have no clue

Contaminated ear fluid may be playing a role.

 

Though the dizziness dissipates quite fast

I feel myself being pulled in one direction

It is very disorientating while it lasts

Lucky I have my Prochlor medication.

 

Oh my cruel vertigo

I hate your spinning spells

I plead you to let me go

You are making my life hell.
