Remember, You asked

Poem

"How ya' doin'"

​

​

I am being held together with duct tape and baler twine.

​

I take a handful of pills in the morning.

Then another whack in the evening

to offset the side-effects of the morning batch.

​

My Doctor opened a new wing in his filing cabinet

and named it after me

​

I have my own ambulance

​

My wife has taken out a subscription with Burials and Cremations Weekly

and asked "Do they leave you in the suit?....seems a waste."

​

Even in polite company there is no bodily function off limits for discussion

and comparison...sometimes seems like a competition.

​

Waiters in restaurants take my pulse before accepting my credit card.

​

I know I have a "screw loose",

but there are things now that require regular adjustment

just to remain useful.

If it stops hurting is when I really start to worry.

​

By the way.....

Don't phone me from some noisy spot, and for Gods' sake, speak clearly

You can text me but make sure you are using the large font.

​

​

​

But ....yeah, ok.....Yourself?
