Nystagmus

Definition

Rhythmic, oscillating motions of the eyes are called nystagmus. The to-and-fro motion is generally involuntary. Vertical nystagmus occurs much less frequently than horizontal nystagmus and is often, but not necessarily, a sign of serious brain damage. Nystagmus can be a normal physiological response or a result of a pathologic problem.

This day is mine

                                   
This day is mine 
Sans any plans 
I have had my coffee at dawn 
And then paced about the house 
Carefully avoiding the dust 
That has gathered I see it 
But it will stay. 
Today I will let it be. 
I will read in bed 
Until my eyes ache. 
Then I will roll over and sleep some more 
Today I shall eat a whole packet of cookies 
All on my own. 
And eat a pint of ice cream straight from the box. 
I shall pour myself an elixir 
Of freedom 
And get drunk on it.
