Migraine Acquaintance

You have no personality; your intent is not menace. But I hate you to the core of my being. You visit weekly and you try almost daily, And I brace myself for the agony which I will be feeling.   Sometimes you warn me by sparkling my vision, A Kaleidoscope of chromium stars from my mind.
