buddy hear this coffee factor

my dad drives a jumbo tractor

if you say to me

drink some herbal tea

you will need a chiropractor.

I could tell that it was out of whack
the docs concern for me he didn't lack
after some sessions
he made a suggestion
saying don't worry I got your back!

stress is the monkey on my back
the load that keeps on giving
i see my chiropractor for a crack
when he confides the secret is forgiving

It is mighty bizarre hanging here like this
Mom says I have to take it, so the doctor say
Next time I see his hairy face I'll give 'im a hiss
It's no fun just hanging in the closet  today
My back IS a whole heap better, yes way!


For the hanging in there contest
Poem by Doris Culverhouse

Inspired by and adorable kitty in overalls hanging in the closet on a hook. Looks like 
he lost his best friend yet content eerily....

body am owner
no longer are a loaner
became body donor

what would make me mad
cheated counting hanging chad
which we knew was bad

hard been hard to bare
chiropractor met my prayer
now can climb each stair

my back has an arch
now stand straight when we march
in clothes is much starch

hurt from head to feet
to adjust he did repeat
my pain did deplete

back was out of line
adjusted back which is mine
now am feeling fine...

She’s so sweet,
I’m all I’m up in her nectar,
I eat up like Mr. Lecter.
Should I call or should I text her?

Next week she’s still running through my mind.
I guess possessed,
I wanna possess call her mine.
Chiropractor on speed dial I tend to break spines.
You have a spell over me love potion number nine.
Excuse me miss this ain’t my first time,
Fresh to death, birthed inside a hurst why? 
Do I even bother confessing to these love crimes....

My sister is unwell
Taken by ambulance
First we heard she had sepsis
Then we heard she has Covid
Third diagnosis was a broken T-1 disc
Which means a broken neck
What? This was after the second ambulance ride
And a chiropractor adjustment in between
Surgery is imminent we are told
Then surgery is optional
Now she has pneumonia
I was told by someone who may know
She is saying this because she does not believe in Covid.
I dread picking up the phone now....

____The Will to Live____


The doctor pronounced, it's over.
Better sign those final papers now!
Incredulously, I gave her the evil
eye!
Who was she, to determine my
destiny?

And, thus, I found myself a
Chiropractor.
And here I am,twenty long years
after.

I am one with eternal hope and 
loads of faith, courage and spine.
No person in a whitecoat will ever
determine when it's my final time!

That is the call of my God, divine.
