Heart medicine

Post by creativesoul » November 8th, 2022, 3:38 pm

I’m taking some medicine
My body Leaps and I’m in love to my feet
Every day at 4 in the morning
I sleep in fetal position
My knees hurt

I’m going on to paint my dreams
I’m so tired
And I feel like this is very scary

But so far- I’m still here
I Dunno what to do
My
Brain is not working
My heart hurts
I love you
I love life
I guess I just have to wait and see
If I can live in harmony

my health is suddenly unpredictable
it started in 2016
major operations
and in between I've hiked my ass off
and painted my ass off
and so here I am still hanging on
ass-less and happy....
lung surgery on Thursday
I think to them my case interesting
off I go , to the pre-op
I guess you're right...these days
there is a lot of wait and see what happens
can't make plans
unless you count tomorrow
and even then
that could change
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

from an inmate of asylum of broken hearts

'good luck steve i am scared for you. I know a coward dies a thousand times
i already owe for a lot money for finaal expenses.
A coupe of years ago i had a dwitzle on an x-ray for weeks i walled around with my pocket full of rocks and thoughts of Virginia Woolf

jana just say highjack :roll:
have you ever seen this cartoon?
the one showing the dashboard of a woman's brain the dashboard of men
my baby sister seems confused to me but then i remember she has more to think about
we think different she and i
she is grateful she was born a woman not a man
and i am grateful i was born a man
gender is a cultural construct born in humans
gender so fraught these days
love is harder for the aged so the poet said
i liked what i could get out of it this poem
good capture dadio would say
harmony i got a tin ear but i keep on
reading your poetry 8)

Wow! I have been a slacker
I slept for days
I quit smoking cigarettes again
Geez
And no salt unless it’s already in there
I told that doctor I was not going to give up coffee
She said” everyone drinks coffee “
I came home to no coffee in my house
Anybody that knows me
Should be able to figure out to bring some
If you drank it all while I was gone
No chai either
Fucking elves and trolls
However it’s amusing
Because remember I said I was not giving it up
Native ppl say the coyote is a trickster
That - coyote- will trick you into learning the lesson
This is no surprise in winter
To speak of such events
However my bones are screaming
And talking to
Me about my ancestors
It’s like a slow moving movie
All the people I have ever met seem like a rock
That I take out of a mystery bag
Feel the smooth cool surface of each one
Has a voice I hear
What language is this? I dunno
One Direction is better
