Caren Krutsinger Poet Narrative

Grow Up America Do the Right Thing

Grow Up America Do the Right Thing
Doctors and nurses are exhausted, stressed and depressed.
Working themselves to death, for people who don’t care.
Fighting a fight the USA is not winning.
I have a suggestion.
No due diligence, you can stay at home.
No concern about others, you do not get a hospital bed.

The unvaccinated are unknowingly murdering innocent people.
Taking up the hospital rooms, they are sentencing others to death.
Heart attack victims, stroke victims, and other victims are dying.
Because the hospital beds are full of selfish people who care only about themselves.
Focusing on their “right” to not get a Covid-19 vaccine.

I think this should be the way it goes down.
No vaccine, no bed.
No vaccine, no hospital services.

The anti-vaccine freaks’ selfishness is killing others.
They have commandeered the entire health care system.
Their “rights” are murdering the spirit of many doctors and nurses.
Who get to watch others die, because they cannot get a bed.
Grow up America. Get united and do the right thing.

Greg Hladky January 22, 2022 at 3:43 PM Thank you, Caren. This message is long overdue. I addressed it, too, in a recent poem, but not as well as you. Caren Krutsinger January 23, 2022 at 1:58 PM Thank you Greg, I am sure yours was great.

Ilene Bauer January 20, 2022 at 2:23 PM wow! you have said this in a very powerful way, caren! i agree with you totally - it seems like the "no vaccine, no hospital bed" rule would be very effective... Caren Krutsinger January 20, 2022 at 8:22 PM I would hope so.

Tom Cunningham January 20, 2022 at 12:31 PM We've had jabs for measles, TB, polio etc and there wasn't a fuss over that and now there's a vaccine for covid which is killing thousands. Conspiracy theorists have a lot to answer for. Tom Caren Krutsinger January 20, 2022 at 8:22 PM The devil is alive and well in America Tom.

L Milton Hankins January 20, 2022 at 8:36 AM I agree with you wholeheartedly, Caren. Absolutely! I hate to have to take this attitude, but, for goodness sakes, some people need to get a grip! Caren Krutsinger January 20, 2022 at 8:22 PM The nurses are going home exhausted, crying every night, ready to quit the profession. They are so overworked.
