 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

As I lay at the bottom of the stairs screaming
"Why me!" Pointing at the sky
I was the one stupid enough to go down backwards
Blame Jesus, a warning, I should not ignore vertigo
The Doctor's advice. Ihave to face radiation
Not blame Jesus for Cancer deal with it!
Use my experience to help others

I love following the Grandchildren in sports
It was sad when the oldest gave up sports for education
I see an athlete making millions and doing drugs
Why Jesus?
Then I realize my Grandson is making the right decision
Thank you Jesus!
Hockey season has been a disaster.
Our best player out for the season with thug forced concussions
Listen to the fans of their team shouting, "Fight fight--kill him!"
Jesus it is only fair we win against these zombies.?
200 plus pounders against a thin bench of kids, we lost
I could ask for Jesus but our back defense that broke down and were tired
I watched my Grandson punched in the back by a six foot six inch 240 pound bully
The bully flying back into the goalie cage a win
I realized Jesus we did win we played fair and a victory for them would be hollow
Because those big bullies are at the end of their hockey carears beating on kids.
Thank you Jesus for allowing me to understand that winning is not everything
Quite assured ending up a bully is not my Grandson's carear choice.
I leave you Jesus with the time to help those with far bigger problems than I have!
Take care of our troups overseas
