Doctor Are You Crazy

Coughing up phlegm from end to end struggling to breathe since December Where do I begin? Please go to the doctor I urge him. But he is a man All macho and stuff Break down and go? What would a doctor know? I am a male you see Strong as a tree Cough cough cough Hack hack hack I will continue coughing my phlegm You do not realize, it is my prerogative, I am a him.

It is not your fault; it is what you were taught by your own stoic fathers.

He will not. He says doctor will not help him. He is right because doctor does not live in this house or in the dollar store or the grocery store which are the places he goes.
