Bobby May Poet Free verse

My Blood Belongs To You

My glucose is too high
My salt test says it could kill me
My weight is over the limit by a pound
My X-ray is dark and dim

But, the butter finger she wants to give
Take your pants down and put on the gown
While slickering up her finger
As I gasp for air

Really I say!
Can’t this wait for another day?
Bobby, do you want to die
No, I say

But really can’t this wait for another day? 
Give me a Twix or a snicker bar 
But gee wiz Doc why the butter finger?
Today is just not my lucky day!

What kind of Doctor is she
She doesn't even know what candy I like
