Premium Member Just a Simple Diagnosis

The human backbone needs all the strength it can muster
When our politicians lie cheat pillage and fluster.

breathed upon by this
fine October’s chill
unblighted chestnuts
break their promise
of long life

A Dismal Diagnosis

Irrational views of all virulent kinds
Are among the slow-witted expected,
But often they mark more intelligent minds,
Making these the more gravely infected.

The Diagnosis

This illness scampers behind me for all eternity
It strikes me down when I least expect it, my mind’s internal storm
It is permanently attached to my disfigured soul.

Diagnosis

Insanity
Is vanity,
The narcissistic cry
Of “I, I, I, I, I, I, I.

And happiness
Consists of less
Analysis, and more of trust
In Him Who fashioned us from dust.

this is not just me

                                               it's sick me

                                         I can heal with that

To Love Without Hope

We got the diagnosis before we left
Too stunned to speak and think- we were bereft~
What to do, what to say- how do we cope?
When all is left for our days is to love; without hope....

Premium Member Self Diagnosis

Before diagnosing yourself with low self esteem
or maybe possibly with depression,
first make sure that you're not surrounded by assholes.
They can cause you to display the very same symptoms.

Troubled

Hounds warbling through my brain. 

Games playing through my veins. 

People howling in the waiting room. 

Waiting for the diagnosis that started in the womb.

Premium Member Diagnosed Psychosomatic

My father, an officer in army, his friend too,
A hypochondriac friend who was always blue,
Said I’m off to see the quack,
Doc said, odds against you stack,
Diagnosis: you’re pregnant Rex, out he flew!

Drac, Wolf, Frank, and Claude

Bela to Lon, doubtless psychosis,
Karloff insert he needs hypnosis,
those three murmured on,
awe night till scared dawn,
Rain unseen flights for diagnosis.

Life Sentence

After the diagnosis,
each moment a dream
of years and then months
and days in between

After the surgery,
the dream became real
time again captured
—the sentence repealed

Daisy's Diagnosis

Lackadaisical Daisy thought she was always cursed,
alway's sneezing every single day since her birth,
around jobs she would linger,
never ever lifting a finger,
doctors diagnose was that she's allergic to work!

Unsigned

A fresh diagnosis,
waiting to die

Time now unmortgaged,
foreclosure in sight

The documents present,
endorsement unsigned

Appraisal—reprisal,
the path freshly limed

Adenoid Facies

His pinched up nostrils,
His bat-ears,
He is hard to hear,
His eyes stare----
--With vacant expression----
And mouth open,
With protruding incisors,
His saliva dribbles.
Clinician! Can you offer diagnosis?
No? Oh! It's Enlarged Adenoids!

No Simple Diagnosis

You want me to seek help
They say I need to switch.
Well whoever heard of a diagnosis
For symptoms of being a *****.

You want me to be more thrilled
Like a roller coaster unhitched.
Yet you do things just to piss me off
And cause my brain to itch.

Premium Member Stories and Peace

The stories

Terrorism and war

Bring attention to

The battleground

Of separation believed..

This simple diagnosis

May seem to suggest

Both a lack of hope

And a solution..but

Both are more stories..

A suggestion of

Peace...?

Premium Member Rx for Halitosis

     I underwent osmosis
        to get rid of halitosis

    Developed a psychosis
        frightening neurosis

    Signed up for group-hypnosis
        just got a diagnosis 

     Downing meds with garlic juice
        made my breath atrocious

Premium Member Alliteration Allowed

Beautiful babies blowing bubbles,
Terrible teens tempting troubles.
Parent's plaguing problems perplexing
Viewing various values vexing.

Doctors diagnose diseases.
Potent potion prescription pleases.
Debating difficult diagnosis,
Desperately diluting doses.

Birth

As of a chrysalis

the beneficent breakage

exfoliation

emergence from

isolationism

into a mosaic of group dynamics

a centring of regard

a new diagnosis

a lissom beginning

departing an empty goblet

full of peppermint concern

Prosopagnosia Self Diagnosis

Oliver Wolf Sacks
Was a neuroscientist always in search of facts.
Neurological problems and oddities he studied
Later realizing his face recognition was very much muddied.

This is in honor of Dr. Sacks who passed away on August 30th.
