A prescription for medicinal pills
  -  the pills were applied

An old lady had a sip of gin,
Not conceding it was a sin,
Purely medicinal was her thought,
A second opinion she never sought,
She drank with a medicinal grin....

I didn’t hear any murmuring.
Thank God Vivek had to do it for me
We were “functionally incapacitated” as they say
In the medicinal terminology
One thing I’m never gonna be...

Dried medicinal bark like dried tallow

The Evening Primrose flower
         Is a yellow color
         This flower is healing
         The seeds and oils

          For medicinal use
          A very useful plant...

culture shock welcomed
so weird taking it easy
been needing this long

skies are fully blue
time is my New Friend Again
calm now existing

blood pressure normal
fluid in my legs now gone
peeing away stress...

Red eyes don’t lie we are sleeping less
Only because making love is the best
Medicinal soul making my lips confess
And we already know love as a test
Neon nibbles love bites on brown neck
Teal thrills causing silky spills so wet
Inspiring enchanting lovers quest
Chocolate lovers melting making a mess...

Shortening daylight
As summer turns fall
To harvest for winter
Gathering all
That is needed in darkness
As nights draw in
Preserving the summer
And the magic within. 
Picking the jewels
Leaf, flower and berry
Mint and hawthorn
Hip and Rosemary. 
Natures secrets
Medicine within
I start my harvest 
Let the healing begin....

Kathleen

My name
is hers.
Sort of.
Similar yet different
because I am.
Altered,
this strong Irish name for a 
weak Sicilian nonna.
Heart it was.
Children’s laughter killed her,
roared his grief.  
They grew with guilt.

I, inherited the heart
but I am not weak with
this strong Irish name. 
Laughter is medicinal.
I live past her years....

peeling layers off
realizing something is left
the feeling so right

so lovely she is
time and life made me forget
slowdown so needed

once wanted to leave
lying to myself in droves
my heart was my guide

reunion kiss welcomed
hand strokes so medicinal
fingers expose truth

Love's Welcome Mat Heals
Vibe Easier When We Try
God's Foresight Teaching...

Can you feel it in the air?
Stunning smile lures you inside 
Cold laughter but no ‘beware’;

Poison like formaldehyde
sticking to your lips like sugar 
as you seek that easy ride;

Medicinal karma cures bad behavior 
Pill mills create easy distribution;
A prescription with a fatal answer 

One dose you see true intention,
the end of the virus of illusion....

Loose teas, bagged teas, hot.
At dinner, iced tea hits the spot.

Earl Grey, green tea, Lipton.
Honey, lemon, sugar; sip on,

Watching TV, before bedtime.
Reading leaves worth a dime?

Been drinking tea for years.
It's medicinal, or so I hear.

Healing powers, lose weight.
There isn't a tea that I hate.

Have a variety in my cabinet.
They're good for me, I bet....

she's a wild
flower with
rose hips
and broad
leaves

she to me
is medicinal
and can be
prepared in
many ways

she can be
eaten raw
like a salad
a musky taste
with a hint of mint

she can be
made into a 
tea and drunk
hot or cold not 
needing honey

or fed with
garlic and
mustard
holding
her

close to
my chest
picante
driving
away

all
my
ailments...

Under divinities shadow,
Rests the tree of life.
With aromatic branches,
Dissected by a pocket knife.

Medicinal veins lushly flow,
Carrying remedial cures.
A verdant daze ensues,
As romantic buds allure.

Poetic smoke…recites,
The stanzas of cannabis trees.
As healthy lungs exclaim,
The power of curative leaves.

At pasture's edge
the last Tansy*
sheds it's blossoms

Common tansy is also known as golden buttons and garden tansy. Common tansy was introduced from Europe into colonial North America in the 1600s as an ornamental plant and for medicinal uses. Ironically, common tansy contains alkaloids that are toxic to humans and livestock if consumed in large quantities. ~ravallirepublic.com...

The doctor said at first,
“Mrs. Ingram, I regretfully say,
Your husband has left, he has gone away”

With a tear she said in reply,
“How could this have happened,
He came in with Pink Eye?”

The doctor replied,
“oh, sorry to confuse, I need to say more,
I prescribed some drugs and he ran out the back door.”

The woman then smiled and turned with glee,
“He won’t get very far, I have the car key!”...

The encumbrance of
life
Copious and
never-ending
A leaching
gangrenous wound
In need of
dismemberment
From his torpid soul

The medicinal
elixirs have raped
the mind
And replaced it with
a dense syrup 
That makes
cognition, onerous 
He cares for nothing
Feels nothing—is
nothing

A means to an end
Has him captivated
Fixated on the task
Relief is at hand
But he lacks the
strength and courage...

Who said I'm not dead?
Maybe its in your head
Maybe my sickness is your disease
Put to ease, bed rest and all

Doctor said to get control
Teacher said police were back
Lets put myth to fact

I use your products, no problem
Passed through the scams
No big deal
So what is real?
You can't blame it on the drugs
We've been tripping a long time
Admit it

Lets puff the dragon
Pass the mystic 
Eclipse the wave
Winning all we can save...

The journey of souls
Pay homage to rebellion
Like mongol queens

The prophet drinks medicinal tea
Harnessing the power of now
Resting in the seat of his soul

The argonauts battle
They fight through the wasteland
And commit murder in the cathedral

The spirit’s apprentice
Tends to the soul
And lathers the oil that heals

Leaves fall gently
The birds are all dying
The journey of souls
Pay homage to rebellion...
