CYNIC
He was Dean of the university’s
College of Creative Malfeasance,
including the Schools of Business,
Law, Information Technology, Marketing,
Economics, Theology and International
Relations!
His son was more sinister
He was a minister in the
Church of Confederate Christianity,
a denomination that is anti-family,
anti-immigrant, anti-democratic,
anti-Semitic, racist, pro-gun
and absolutely pro-life, perpetually
in the courts, perpetually in the news
and social media, perpetually in your face
a rising case of rape and incest,
a danger to our lives, an acute
health problem, requiring
an abortion!

There is an illiness in the family
My sister has a health problem
She went to see the doctor
He sent her for some tests
The doctor said it was stones
He said "we all get stone in the jaw"
"Nothing to worry about
For awhile she forgot about it
Soon more symptons found
This followed by more tests
At the hospital more tests
Followed by others in Toronto
All the tests
must be done
Waiting was so difficult to do
Wondering about the outcome
So june passed, July passed
August came went for results
The three of went to hear
It was not easy to listen to
Doctor just spoke the words
No one wanted to hear
:It is lung cancer"
For surgery to be done
Will be September 19th
For her surgery to be done
Doctor said -"It was caught
in time

DO NOT ABUSE ME
I am a petroleum pipeline
Do not abuse me
If I burst, fire may burn you
I am a drug
Do not abuse me
If you take me wrongly
You may develop health problem
I am a motor car
Do not abuse Me
If ther is an accident
You may die
I am a gun
Do not abuse me
If you pull my trigger
You may kill someone
I am a woman
Do not abuse me
If you rape me
There maybe no children for you.

I don't (pray about it)
Know what to do? My mind has
Never been so blank; but I'm
Open for any new or
Winning ideas. (pray about it)
What if I just (pray about it)
Hum and hull about it until it turns into
A health problem? No, you're right,
That won't do.
Don't you just hate it when the
Obvious answer to your problems is right in front of your face! (pray about it)
