POLITICAL NEPHROLOGY
Today’s politics,
In need of dialysis:
Filtering out bigotry:-
Otherwise, democracy
Will soon be totally gone:-
Fitting

Loose fitting dialysis

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2025©
Techno-scramble
the ramble of cars on sheet metal
Tall walking for sledge hammer rhythm
The dialysis of t.v. dramas
and hospital soup delivered on time
A team of managers examine
Mortuary
Dead before what could have been
Electromagnetic heart transfer failed
Before the soul left the bed
Whirring of gadgets promised
Earthly pulses and show tunes
As lungs gave out
I wake up early Monday morning
still cold and dark outside
eat my breakfast, take my pills
sit and wait for my ride,
arrive at the center
get comfortable in my chair
like I do 3 times a week
thankful t hat I'm there
I come to every treatment
I never show up late
I eat a healthy diet
and watch my fluid intake
This isn't the life I chose for me
but I have to tell you this
I wouldn't be sitting here today
if it wasn't for Dialysis.
Already, three months now...not good...
between hospital and nursing home,
helping him to add days to his life
with dialysis for liver and kidney failure.
For what purpose, when his fate is set?
The pain of watching him fight hard
for a dire life never to be the same?
Perhaps...'rest in peace' should trade with 'life'.
