Poetry || Of Lies Doctors Tell

Of Lies Doctors Tell
Doctors are
unfortunately liars
The one who promised
the injection wouldn’t hurt
and it would be swift
– but the needle said otherwise
The buttocks know the story of the pain
The one that promised
Uncle B was fine
and would soon be discharged
– but two days after
had death pay him a visit
The one that promised
he was different from other guy
– but like many of his demon caliber
on a heart breaking spree
Forgive me
Forgive him lord
The one who dispenses
lenses to help see better
– but just for profit
and years down the line still shortsighted
I don’t believe or like them doctors
They make pain too easy.
– Dammy
