Best Healthcare Poems
When you take a pile of cow dung
And try to make it sweet
Then shove it down the people’s throat
Tell them they must eat
You’ve screwed up everything you’ve touched
So why should we trust you now
If we put our healthcare in your hands
You’ll screw that up too somehow.
You’ve stripped social security
You’ve destroyed the U.S. Mail
If you touch our freakin’ healthcare
I am sure that you will fail
To try and tell us it’s for our own good
There really is no need
Not coming from politicians
Drunken bums, full of s—t and greed

American healthcare is a joke
Government play on too many folk
Those who can't pay
Die everyday
Whilst Trump switches from Lysol to Coke

A pandemic common occurrence:
Losing one's job and health insurance!
The hospital count*
Continues to mount
Morticians wonder who is the dunce?
* People without an income nor
health insurance die at home or in the
street, not in hospitals!

We are ordered to provide notice to avoid a global psychosis.
Your dedication to take this medication will give you the perfect prognosis.
Take your pills to ward off those ills. They affect your brain, you’ll all find.
It’s better for society that we remove this anxiety from your very unhealthy minds.
It’s a worldwide confession that we all have depression, A phenomenon from the beginning of time.
The men in the labs provide capsules and jabs ... to refuse will become a crime.

Let politicians claim virtue,
and abandon honest men.
Let the poor inherit promises,
and be comfortable servants.
Let the famous enjoy advantage,
and carry no favors in heaven.
Let physicians prescribe hope,
and a worthy price be paid.
Let education forge solutions,
and notorious liars lose favor.
Let simple humanity be rewarded,
and tyranny reap the sorrow of death.

Free verse
People glower; horns get louder -
I wonder why a drive so dour
was ever termed rush hour.
.
Dollars followed by point 99
Are dollars with one more assigned.
Retailers think shoppers math blind.
Business phones in America evolved
With English as option, not default,
Like a blond joke saw phones solved.
In the USA, I cannot afford to die
So place my body atop funeral rates
Until they pass sky for heaven-high.
Halloween is marketed in July,
Followed by Christmas in August –
Greed's gone awry, I won't comply.
Medical care doesn’t care at all,
Should be re-termed medical gall
As many are ill from medical appall.
The law fits fine if one is rich,
Others needing a justice hit
Need a thief’s help to pay for it.
Let me end my sad word hurl
As born in my dramatic world:
Hyperbole debris, reality decreed.

I developed an ileus from being constipated.
This isn't something that's being exaggerated.
It's a blockage of the intestines, that's something I soon realized.
For a week and a half, my illness caused me to be hospitalized.
I was admitted at Morristown Hamblen Healthcare.
The ileus caused me to be hospitalized there.
The hospital is located in Morristown, Tennessee.
I couldn't eat or drink, I was connected to an I.V.
What happened to me can cause quite a scare.
I was treated well while I was hospitalized there.
It was over a week before I was put on solid foods.
I couldn't eat or drink, it put me in quite a bad mood.
Going to that hospital turned out to be a good decision.
While I was there, I mostly watched television.
After being treated with medication, my ileus ceased.
After ten days, I was better and I was released.
The medication I received drastically improved my digestive flow.
If you become ill, Morristown Hamblen Healthcare is an excellent hospital to go.

Going to the doctor is such a thrill
I just can't wait til I get ill
I saw a pretty nurse
She and I converse
I only got sick when I saw the bill

Healthcare
It's where I've belonged for my
career
Although, some days, I want to
give in and wonder,
What passion brought me
here?
A nurse comments, under her
breath,
"What a Thankless job..."
I can't help but disagree and
in, thinking, I stop
Then I find a patient's
shoelaces
Tied, like a gift, inside my
pocket
Little things & 'Thank you'
notes
Will always keep me walking
The lady who checked, 'one
last time',
On your Grandpa or Aunt Molly
Even though I am sometimes
surrounded by disease & death
Some were born to aid others
And will continue to help
Until our last living breath

Bio
The All American Chump decreed
Americans are a different breed
Education we just don't need
The poor must work to earn their feed
Housing simply fosters greed
Healthcare cripples slow my lead
My budget clearly plans for war
Let losers ponder, "either ….or"
Everyone loves blood and gore
Americans just love it more
And I, as leader of the corps,
Shall shed more blood than mighty Thor
We lead the world in making tanks
But funding conflict breaks the banks
I, alone, can turn the cranks
To make a trembling world give thanks
Or fear the worst: "Here come the Yanks"
Mothers, historians, fill in the blanks.

If I became a pronoia non-schizophrenic
I might begin channeling Jesus of Nazareth
but, instead, dealing with my real world dysfunctional family,
with messianically depressing delusions
refracting illusions of gift-it-forward co-redemptive grandeur
leading cooperative economic explorations
into remembering pronoia hopes
resilient win/win regenerativity
despite win/lose verbally abusive
and actively distrusting history
Struggling to pacify
remaining cognitive v affective dissonance
about bodhisattva empowering
and economically enlightening assignations,
therapeutic communication
respectful of our integrally democratic constitutions.
Organic frames of sympathetic reference
and nonviolently communing dialects
and double-binding co-empathic
depolarizing dipolar Yang/Yin permeable

Parallelismus Membrorum
It's always an issue with parents choosing
religion over healthcare. It makes me sixk
just hearing about it. Here these kids are,
dying of life-threatening diseases,
including cancer, and instead of taking
them to the doctors so they could be
cured, those ignorant parents are always
relying on God to help theor kids recover. I
see that the bad mothers and the bad
fathers, not wanting to let doctors cure
them of cancer or whatever deadly
diseases they've got, would rather ler their
kida die than live out the rest of their
lives.Now, how sick is that? These
peopeople can call themselves Christian
scientists all they like, but they'll rot in the
Giant Pit of Inferno for that. This is why
we've got healthcare; that's why we've got
doctors: they're here to nurse me and
everybody else back to health. How dare
these people choose religion over
healthcare, how dare these people not
take their children to doctors' offices, how
dare these so-calles "Christian scientists"
not allow the doctors to cure their kids of
cancer, AND LEAVE THEM TO DIE!! That's
so unforgivible in one too many different
ways! The supposedly Christian scientists
should've known that God wasn't going to
help them recover from diseases and
stuff. It's a dog gone shame that their
parents are not doing the right thing by
taking them to get medical attention, and
it's a downright disgrace. Have they no
shame? Have they no decency? If this
whole "religion over healthcare" ordeal
continues, and it doesn't stop, the whole
world's going down, and the future of all
children will be not so good. Something
must be done right now.

Dramatic Monologue
Healthcare for the People
By Franklin Price
3/25/2017
Healthcare for the people
Is what we need to see
Not corporately aligning
Just taking care of you and me
Not bowing to insurance
While enriching CEO's
We're dying without healthcare
As their selfish money grows
Capitalism is important
It is much of who we are
Healthcare premiums too expensive
For bigger homes and yachts and cars
For the health insurance moguls
Who love dollars more than you
They must make a lot of profit
In everything they do
Every group priced separately
Even down to one or two
If illness or disease strikes out
It's you who pays for you
The cost of health insurance
Could be diminished quite a lot
If the insured put in larger groups
To mix the healthy and the not
Then limit percent of profit
For all the health insurance need
Base the premiums on the newer mix
Healthcare for all and not for greed
If the moguls do not like it
And think the profit's not enough
Cover all who want by medicare
Let the greedy see it's tough
Let them raise the premiums
On the richest that are left
The ones who can afford it
Not the ones who think it's theft.

America's seniors
Paid their taxes when due
But retired on pensions
That favored the few
Now County Clerks
Have made that quite clear
Under "Cause of Death:"

Verse
Health care standards
are climate care constants
and resilient variables.
Health care giving and receiving constants
across cultures and diverse species
of plant and animal,
and perhaps even mineral, lifespans,
each and all declare
mentoring mutual health is positive,
between ego-center
and eco-exterior,
Yang and bilateral, or even multilateral, Yin,
squared and cubed
and fractal and octaves
of resilient variable sounds
and light,
space and changing interdependent times.
And absence of Golden Rule
mutual health wealth resilience,
is both climate eco-exterior
and landscape ego-uncentering
pathology.
So,
if health care and receiving
is ecopolitically good for One,
it is therefore resiliently good for All,
regardless of age,
species,
animal or plant lifespans
of ecopolitical
and psychological
health care constant development
across resiliently diverse multigenerations.
Ultimately,
health care systems,
like climate care systems
and cooperative networks,
from and form single nondual co-arising payer systems
of regenerative cooperation,
interdependently resilient
EarthTribe Elder co-investors
in pay-wealth-forward priorities
of WinWin 0-sum principles
like Gaia Hypotheses
cooperating in bilateral BiCameral Minds
with HealthCare Giving and Receiving
mutually loving interdependent YinMinds
with YangBodies,
or equivalent paradigmatic currencies
and exchange rates.
