Focusing on the NHS

Focusing on the NHS

mother teaching my brother
to read.. ( he's five years older..)
his reading was atrocious
I would be six then...
I laughed at him..
a child doesn't have
conscience nor political
correctness..it is as it is..
so he's 11 and can't read..
and worn national health glasses
from age five..till sixty five
What if, back then...
he didn't know the letters
when he read the eye test charts?
and just guessed it..
What if he's worn glasses since
a child..because he guessed
out of scared bravado..
forced to peer through glass
how would a normal eye react..
it would make radical changes
in the brain..
Personally for this reason
I can't wear sun glasses
they give me a headache
trying to peer through murk
of totalitarian health regimes
my own son displayed similarΒ 
I called him lazy..
he didn't pick up reading fast
he had a special teacher in class
I called it lazy..and I thought back
to when I was four..
words were fascinating..
endless..creative..I liked them
they were adventures ..
My sonΒ  in his mid thirties..
He's a Data Anylist..
but he tells me he's dyslexic
is it an Optical delusion...?
