Why Tomorrow Never Comes

The needful prescription is scary,
Though we promise ourselves that we’ll try it,
So let us eat, drink, and be merry,
For tomorrow we diet.

Piss over a dog bite
It helps to heal wound quickly

Doctor Bills

I awaited, from my Doctor Quills,
A prescription for medicinal pills
  -  the pills were applied
  -  but I about died
When I had received his pill bills!

Pimp-Luscious

I got a bad case of the avian flu
It's a bad case and the prescription is you
There's a bird out there that's gotten me
That writes mad rhymes to a Rotten T

Prescription

Medicate me
But only until I dream
of this expansion. 

Without your guard up
I cannot predict Silent
Consequences. 

Trite,
Feeble
and Withering. 

I stand up
to pause.

Premium Member Tip aka Don't Do What I Did

Don't go shopping for prescription glasses
when you're mad at your boss.

You'll end up coming home with
don't f*ck with me glasses
that you'll regret!

with one foot short I was hamper’d
believin' my life was 'ncumber’d
when quite by surprise
'peared a girl with cross-eyes
and proclaim’d I was doctor order’d!

The Bully

Into the locker, longing for loneliness.
Bang against the wall, waiting for the weekend.
Scared fearful, frightened flight.
Home alone, anger alienation.
Pain inside, prescription pills.
Sleep, silently snoring.

Seeing Things

January & February this year, 
prescription lenses lost. I count
the cost (it cost me dear).

A place for everything
and everything in its place,
my grandmother said,

but I only know 
where my glasses are
when they're on my face.

Anonymous

I didn’t place my name 
Because I didn’t want the words tethered to me, 
I want no credit,
Hoping that the verbiage gives you sight. 
A prescription of my rose colored glasses. 
Hoping that each string of words are embroidered on your heart.

Blurry; Time is passing

Sun dial time change-
blinding sunset, window pane.
Baby fingers growing slender,
eye glass lenses-
losing strength,
as yesterday further past I can no longer see.
I guess the prescription needs to be
stronger now
as time steals days away.

Experience overrules prescription of form

when euphony carries off a poem beyond the norm

Premium Member A Must Read

"A must read.."

So often appearing

This prescription..

This assumption that

Searching is the same

What I have read

Is a cloud lifter

And will be for you..

Futility unleashed

This story of ever

Expanding beliefs of 

Separation...

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.

Premium Member -Ignorant Fool

Ignorance is a flaw
Which a prescription can be written for
One for compassion and empathy 
And a  large kindness suppository !

Another prescription for education
Understanding,tolerance and patience 
A blood test to extract cruel
No longer an ignorant fool!!

Cafe Creatures

from her handbag
she took some
prescription pills
while some frustrated
sexual fantasy
crawled up the ladder
in her silk stockings
and began sucking
at her ********
as she sipped
on her coffee
and speared the final
remains of the stale
chocolate cream cake

Premium Member those are the ones

The doctor spent hours fitting me with glasses
Those are the ones! My owner said.
Valentines Day is coming up.
And they will look cute at Christmas said her partner.
I was more than a little annoyed.
They were not my prescription.
But wow did I look cute in red frames

Premium Member There's a Pill For That

Apathy’s paralyzation,
Iridescent indignation,
Steely eyed, grim concentration,
Ebullient, effuse elation,
Scheming klepto pilferation,
And dysphoric ideation
Drugs for every situation
Prescription proliferation
Pharmacological nation
Where’s my pills? Where in tarnation?
