Today’s Doctors Visit…

What to write about, nothing comes to mind, but one,

The doctor’s visit today will go down in the annals of time,

Two solid hours I sat, in a room no bigger than my closet,

For them to forget that I was there, closed the office on time…

Had my book, read till I was tired, fell asleep on the exam table,

Woke up as they were locking the door, set off the alarm, very capable,

In came the security men, called the local police,

All a misunderstanding, forgot I was there, only here was I to get “greased…”

The doctor called back in, she was humiliated, apologized profusely,

Hey doc, don’t push in too hard, hey that hurts, not my fault you were almost home,

So the doc she thinks, that insomnia is not a problem with me, hell I can sleep anywhere,

Even on an exam table, so cold and hard with bright lights in the ceiling up there…

No problems therein arose, still took my co-pay, even though I was left,

But they gave me tons of samples & bought me dinner; nothing for me was bereft,

I would have been happy with an apology, and some free drugs, which I did get,

I also got a nap, enough for me, anything I get for free, I am happy as a bee…
