 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan


Notice I did not say Politicians
Both are getting wealthy
Besides road construction
Can't drive anywhere without road blocks
Walk between unmoving cars holding signs
"Out of work, Lazy and doing drugs"
That's more honest than the Politicians
But honesty well never gets you rich
It does not pay to lie
Unless you are running for office
Politicians are getting older
Or have you noticed Hillary lately
Me, I am just looking at the Trump kids
Not so sold on either candidates, but girls are beauties
They say I need hip surgery
So I am browning up to Surgeons
Is that a prejudicial statement?
Like saying someone else's wife is not attractive
Said that to me and secret service would be active
But my wife is a beauty
She has to be smart she married me
And it sure wasn't't for my money
Today we discuss if I need hip surgery or not
I am walking in slow but head held high
But enough about Politicians and me
It is about Surgeons
Sorry for my rambling
The phone just rang
I was waiting on words from my Brother in laws
Surgery and the word was not good
Never smoked did drugs and in great shape
Daily is running Marathons and bikes
He had a colostomy
They found Cancer and we were waiting for word
It is a double hit
Before they can operate they found heart issues
Tomorrow morning four way by pass operation
Can't operate on Cancer until heart surgery
To my trusted friends
I am in shock
Ask for the miracle of your prayers
All his family including daughter are veterans
Two days ago his Grandson joined the Marines
