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!
i know he
just wiped
his nose
while he
coughed
and then
put away
that
shopping
cart
so let me
pick another
while i pick
my nose and
wonder is
that other
person
watching
me because
i'm also
paranoid

Moi?
i caught
a glimpse
of sunset
filled with
feelings
fueled
by anxiety
and depression
thinking that this
actually at this
time everyday
my horizon
will repeat
itself thus
upsetting
me knowing
i'll lose her
everynight
again and
again
adinfinitum

Philosophers debated:
Can a medium ever be small or large?
Is faux leather from fake cows?
Does a hypochondriac think he has everything except hypochondria?
Do denture wearers always give us false smiles?
If a snail loses its shell, does it become a slug?
For Su’s Suzette Prime contest, 27th November
mourning celebrations:
Easter without hunts
or relative sounds,
anniversary knells,
birthday sans icing —
tears well.
you wipe them off the screen,
clean as you go,
wash hypochondriac hands.
green sleeves
on the old oak awakes,
surely timed by mistake —
no one to dance underneath.
Autumnal leaves
ought to be
trickling down Ichabod’s arms
decomposing.

He sleeps and dreams exercise;
packs his refrigerator
with fruits and vegetables.
A "clean eater," you see.
A worrying germophobe
so afraid of falling ill;
Don't dare cough or sneeze near him,
for he'll run away!

Feeling Rough
Sore throat, runny nose,
Could be a cold I suppose,
Or could it be influenza?
I think I need a detox cleanser
Turmeric, folic acid, gingko leaf
I'm feeling rough beyond belief
High B.P. and heart attack
Been called a hypochondriac
Gout in toe, earache
I never know what to take
Rheumatism in both knees
That Ibuprofen gel seems to ease
All my ailments could fill a page
My greatest one is called old-age
My face is covered
In splotches
My hair is dull and brown
My stomach bulges
And my butt is fat
My back- it aches
My head- it throbs
I stubbed my toe
Again
He looked at me
She pulled my hair
And at my clothes
The always stare
My side- it pains
My finger’s jammed
And in the door
My hand was slammed
There’s a moth
I scream with fright
I run away
With all my might
My room’s dark
My feet are cold
And there’s the boogieman
I was told.
I"m getting rather faint again
I don"t feel well at all.
My back has gone,my legs both ache
must sit in case i fall
Scurvy,swine flu,measles mumps.
I must have had the lot
I even broke out in a sweat
whilst i was in my cot
The doctor calls,he doesnt care,
Just looks at me and smiles.
I grimace back in pain,not joy.
I"ve just sat on my piles
The end is nigh,and thats a fact.
Of this i can be sure.
My epitaph will surely read..
They couldn"t find the cure

To all out there who think they’re sick,
modern medicine has invented a trick
psychiatrists say is no better than a quack
if you believe you’re a hypochondriac.
It’s a little pill you take for relief
when downed with water and belief.
Take as many as you feel and need,
have faith in them as you would a creed.
Drugs, alcohol, quick-cures avoid,
they’ll have you becoming paranoid.
For best results, don’t be skeptical:
placebos work best when psychological.
