Compartmentalization

COMPARTMENTALIZATION 

Friends, absolutely believe why
not in the “Loony Bin?
Compartmentalized my stresses, 
so messes … not get in!

Compartments help me remember,
one illness at a time.
Must do cause, "nine" problems have, not
about to loose ... my mind!

Compartments, real life savers, now
one job at time, tackle.
Improved old age focus, glad
husband … didn't spackle.

Compartmentalize medications
if don't, embarrassed be.
Took water pills, before party,
oops … in “Depend’s” did pee.

Doc’s now compartmentalize, which
body part they'll inspect.
Last visit showed my sagging boobs,
examine ... was for my neck!

Crucial to compartmentalize, must
do each week heard some say.
Might put off till tomorrow, cause
tomorrows ... another day.
