His favorite Xmas carol is no Christmas carol at all.
Had a dream last night.
He was screaming.
Screaming with the red hot chirping pain in his left knee.
Screaming at the burning ember in his left hip.
Could hear himself screaming.
It was scary.
Startled awake, his left knee hurt like Hell.
Left hip, too.
Must be a storm moving in.
He only ran for an hour that day.
Felt better once he got moving.
