RANTS RAVES AND SOME FAITH IN HUMANITY

By Dan Donlan, www.PoetryPoem.com/dandy1    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime

I have been bothered about what is going on in this world.
Those who know me know I have no opinions I would express,
and if you believe that I have this Bridge for sale in Brooklyn,
bordering North Dakota oil wells. I can't go to my bridge
because I just love the new laws that legalize drugs and promote
new laws daily in this state. What more can I ask for than a Governor
who is so caring that he well allow no capital punishment during
his terms. Those poor men and woman suffering so, Only fed three times
a day tax free room and board, whose only fault is they killed three
or four innocent kids and families. Think of the tax money going
into finding away to convict those three or four time losers. Not
to mention the humanizing saving that would be saved impeaching this
idiot Governor and saving his wages and lifetime pension. Ah,the raving
part.

Some faith in humanity. Wife has had some serious things going on.
Probably why I am so close to being a raving lunatic. But here is the
good part. When she went to Doctor number one for her back Surgery
several Doctors making big bucks didn't want any part of her surgery.
But one young man took on the chore. He called me personally after a
long day doing several surgeries asking how my wife was doing. I said,
"You call on every patient to find how they are doing?" And he said,
"I love my job. I look forward to every day getting up and going to
work." After my wife's surgery instead of vacation he flew to Africa.
I understand he has over sixty surgeries lined up in a country that has
few Doctors or money to pay for Doctors. It gives you some faith in our
youth.

Doctor number two*

She is very young and very skinny. She started doing the hard surgeries
some of those more esteemed did not want to tackle. Wife was transfer ed
from one hospital to another because her break was so massive as this
Doctor with a long line our his front door of quick surgeries wanted no
part of. Her ankle broke n three places with bone debris everywhere. We
were told that it was like putting a gig-saw puzzle together. Five hours
surgery. You can't do five or six of those day. Talked to the Doctor. She
said, "Yes, they send all the surgeries that are like your wife's and hers
was trust me one of the worst. I just love doing them because it gives me
a real meaning to wanting to be a Doctor." Now if our Governor would just
step down because it is too hard on his heart to put to death a man who
brutally killed the mother, two children under the age of seven and her sister
and he is one of twelve just like him who are spared for mercy reason. While
the families of those murdered who lost decent people are vivid. But mild
mannered as i am I do hate to mention impeachment for this sorry soul. /dandy
