A SIMPLE PROCEDURE

That's what they said but I was the one having it,
enough drama, uncertainty to make you want to quit;
you could relate to other things you had to do in life,
get married, drive a car, go dentist, placate the wife.

Have a haircut, get my shoes shined, clean my teeth,
take kids to school, meditate, turn over a new leaf,
crit other writers, admonish the blighters or praise,
look down your cleavage, see the parting of the ways.

Take the goddamn dog for a walk, water the flowers,
bullshit you again, persuade you that I have special powers,
engineer mind games, coerce, what you don't want to do,
take you out, a genie rub and then go to the bloody pub too.

Easy peasy, stop moaning, there's nothing that I lack,
but then you're not the one with a nine inch cut in your back.

Hello Terry...

I'm really surprised that certain Hospitals are still open...

Especially, when they can't do a fair performance on a simple procedure...

A friend of mine is going through hell for their mistake and now the best anyone can do for him is open him back up wash his insides and his hardware before they put back in and because of the infection he got because, they stitched up his tube hole in error he will be on antibiotics for at least two more years plus more surgeries...

It started off at 6 months with the antibiotics...

The same Hospital that amputated the wrong leg on a person years ago...

A girl died from tonsillitis surgery different Hospital yet, a simple procedure...

I wondered why I see so many graduation students with their Doctor degree with huge smiles...

At first, I thought they were just happy about their accomplishments but, then I began to notice they were in shock that the University was dumb enough to give them the Degree...

More in shock when the States gives them a License to PRACTICE...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...
