Premium Member not my idea

I’m sick. I’ve got the ick.
this wasn’t my idea.
My Grandmère had some little orphans over - a couple had coughs.
They were cute and vulnerable - they seemed to have subdued fun.
I caught it - the baby flu.
I thought I could fight it off but it got the upper hand.
Grandmère called a doctor and he was here in twenty minutes.
He asked to see my chest. “If you won’t laugh,” I granted.
I got the COVID rapid antigen test, No.
The rapid influenza diagnostic test, No.
A Rapid RSV antigen test, No.
“You’ve got what everyone else has,” the doctor said.
“Or you have something else.” He added.
‘I could be a doctor,’ I thought.
“Do you want to take a minute to talk to an AI?” I asked.
He gave me some steroids, so my fastball will get better.
Between coughing fits, I suggested a medically induced coma.
Anyway, it’s official - I’m sick, something nasty but nothing in particular.
He gave me Hycet (cough syrup) a yellow, cherry flavored opioid.
Five minutes after I took a pinky-finger dose I stopped coughing.
Something, somewhere deep inside suggested I cough.
‘Nahh,’ I thought, not now.
Gotta go, I’m very sleepy.

Wishing Well Poem

Each and every night this 
i pray before i wake

I find in me the word's to write

The poem i wish and dreamed
i always would

That when and once it was
read by every single reader

They then believe that it was 
somehow written especially
just for them

That they can turn to when they
are at their lowest ebb , friend's
are few and darkness closes in

Word's that dose like opioid
medication to alleviate all of
their innermost distress , suffering 
and pain

Until the demons cascading 
freelance through their thoughts
are able to be caught just in time

So that they can summon up
the strength to exercise dormant
facial muscles so as to extrapolate
a smile 

That the many other people's 
lives that they unknowingly
have come to touch

Have also come to rely on in 
order to get them and help them
throughout their day as well

As to some their infectious
smile pleasant manner and
elevating demeanour

Is in part the substance and
the content of aforementioned
poem

I only hope and pray one fine
day before i die i find myself
awakening 

Truly to be blessed with the 
divine inspiration in order 
for me to be enabled to

Express these heartfelt
thoughtful word's in some
poetic form

That will do and treat the 
subject matter with
the respect and justice it so
deserves

And hopefully in doing so
somehow heal 2 hearts
with a 1 single verse 

For anyone and everyone who
cares enough to take the time
to read it

Be Lenient Sir

Be Lineate Sir

Jack and Jill went up a hill.                                                                                                                                                                                     Time to take another pill.

God in heaven answers prayer;                                                                                                                                                                    My diet pills are green and square.

I grow increasingly concerned
about living in an unhealthy monoculture
of educational
evangelical
judicial
legislative hubris

Rhetorically LeftBrain dominant
verbally debating
which empowered opinion leader
will improve my personal consumer powers
and ego-incorporated 
greed productive profits

In this competitive big Dog
eats little not leftbrain dominant 
feminized nasty girl-dog 
predative worldview

In which straight white male dominant
militarized
police state supporters
armed and dangerous
capital profit performers
for self-aggrandizing opulence
corpulence
corporate satiation

Slick as opioid addiction
to causing pain
supporting profitable relief
through drug-addiction management,

Corporate sponsored 
unhealth
uncaring
inhumane unwealth
predation strategies
to survive economies
of LeftBrain dominant

With no apparent worthy survivors
after we professionally
corporately
predatively kill prosperity
of all our individual species
recast as if
competitive pleasure-seeking consumers
on some superficial entertainment regimen
and off from our own RightBrain

inviting compassionate health care
ecologically co-gravitating, 
sacredly indigenous
natural/spiritual nondualistic,

What we need

is health and safety

Premium Member The Opioid Crisis

I wish I had known that the cocaine and heroine
That killed my friends in the sixties and seventies
Would become an “Opioid Crisis” in my later years.

I wish I had known that somehow the same bad choices
That not only killed but criminalized my friends back then
Would make today’s addicts poor victims who need accommodation.

I wish I had known that the press and government
Would create the battle cry “Opioid Crisis” as a way to get readers and votes
Without considering the consequences in our healthcare system.

I wish I had known that because of measures taken
To protect other people’s children who chose to misuse an illegal substance
My child dying of cancer would be treated like a criminal when obtaining prescribed pain meds

I wish I had known that at almost 60 years of age I would be fighting
To get pain medicine I clearly need for a diagnosed condition
And be treated like an addict on the street was in my youth

I wish I had known that despite friends and family who love and care
This would be the loneliest, most painful time of life
Because those with the power to help are busy completing forms and counting pills.

But I didn’t know. And the life I’ve lived has been a clean one in which I always strived to make the right choices,
No speeding tickets, no parking tickets, no arrests, church on Sunday;
And no relief from the pain that now fills the long nights.

I didn’t know that I would have to watch a sweet young woman with stage four cancer
Jump through hoops to get the meds that make her comfortable
While addicts who overdose are fawned over, given expensive drugs, and promised no consequence.

I didn’t know that I survived an abusive household growing up
With alcoholic parents who enjoyed belittling me
Only to find myself understanding suicidal depression for the first time as a senior adult.

 But now you know.

Premium Member Heil Who?

His legions marched through Gaul; how crazy could he be?
He ordered them to kill Neptune, spears into the sea
They were loyal to a madman, but blind loyalty is a sin.
And Caligula kept ruling, until an assassin did him in.

Hitler's doctor gave him a medicine with amphetamine
Withdrawal symptoms came, no way to get his body clean
Another drug was oxycodone, an addictive opioid.
A third pill gave Hitler jaundice, you think he'd be annoyed

But Hitler liked the doctor, fired another doc who called foul
Continued wars and genocides, till he threw in the towel
He did dumb tactical things, generals were ignored.
But Nazis fought to the end, for this man they adored.

Stalin killed his own Army officers, so Russian power faded.
He saw disloyalty everywhere, while the Wehrmacht invaded.
Eventually Russia won, but at such a terrible cost:
Twenty-seven million Rus soldiers dead, before the Nazis lost.

Mao said all Chinese farms must be run by the state
In four years 45 million starved, but his ego did not deflate.
He decided cities were corrupt, ordered folk to the countryside
They had no survival skills, so 20 million died.

Mao's "Red Book" sells millions every year.
T-shirts sell too, look who men revere
they ignore millions of deaths, a rule almost mystic
Is one death a tragedy, but many a statistic?

Russia puts up Stalin statues, some places Nazis still won't fade
If mass murder doesn't matter, does stupidity made the grade?
If dead could speak, there'd be a volcano under our feet
If men can't learn from the past, it is doomed to repeat.

A song for this:
The End of the Innocence by Don Henley

Loving is a Drug

I’m on a nasty drug
Disguised as kindly beauty
You’ll never find my dealer;
I’m the one who sells it to me

Yes, I’m the dealer of my love
Spilled those pills straight down my heart
I never feel I’ve had enough
Yet you’ve broke me since the start

How I long to stop taking you
But love’s an opioid for crying
Each day I’m begging, drooling
Though inside I know the drug's lying

It's as if I have forgotten
All the pain you’ve put me through
My mind goes numb, my eyes turn dumb
Bam!
My hands connect with you

And within your cusp I pry your vial
I know it's full of dust…
But it gleams like gold within the moment
My eyes see through its rust

I unscrew your rusty bottle
And my heart of longing sinks
My loving stole the best of me
Your perfume abruptly stinks

Every time you blew my candles out
To windy winter blues
But I can not stop my heart from beating
It's something I must do

So much love locked in my heart-shaped vault
No one to share it with but you
Freedom from you means no love
How can I make it through?
