I Went On A Hospital Visit…



I went on a hospital visit this day,
And stopped at the security gate,
Asked security to radio for help for me,
Or I would be in a state!
You see, it's a bit like this;
I need a little bit of help and support,
So the nice young security fella…
Phoned for the help that I sought!
But the man in the car behind me,
Went off his head in a temper so bad!
Went berserk at me – for what reason was this?
There was none, now isn't that sad!
He ranted and raved at the poor lad!
He really went off his head!
I think he should be careful!
Cos he could have ended up dead!

He was as mad as hell, I have to admit,
And he scared the life from me!
With a temper like that, I have to add,
He could have had a coronary!
He was wild in the eyes abusive to a fault!
And oh, glory, glory be!
His temper was off the Richter scale!
And he was as livid as hell at me!
I have to add, oh, I was angry,
And I gave that man a reply,
I shouted to him; ‘What's your problem!'
What happened next caused me to cry.
‘Just because you're disabled!' He roared,
Hanging out of his car window quite mad!
‘You have no right to park your car there!
Because I think you're pretty sad!

So move out of the way!' He bellowed.
As he effed and blinded in a language so coarse…
But I just sat as he overtook me…
For him, there was no remorse!
Disabled, what the hell did he mean?
He angered me, oh yes, it hurt!
By what he screamed in public!
By what his foul mouth did blurt!
But all he did was shame himself!
Oh, but he did, I tell no lie!
But that fool of a fool, in his hatred and anger,
Caused me to cry, and to cry!
I had every right to park where I was!
While security arranged for the man...
To get my wheelchair out of the car,
And help me as only he can!

And oh, but they were all livid!
At the carry on of this nasty man!
And God forgive me, but I wished on him…
6 months in a chair, and to suffer as I am!
Just to give him a taster,
Of how it is for people like me!
Who need a little bit of help!
Disabled don't mean dead you see!!!
Cos contrary to what some think!
We are not dead or a waste of space!
We all have our niche' in life!
And no-one knows the life they'll face!

I wasn't born in a chair you know!
I acquired it over a period of time!
Just like others before and after me!
Cos at one point in my life, I was fine!
But then I got a little bit knackered,
And my spine, well it pains a lot!
So bad it is, so at times I cry…
If I was a horse I think I'd be shot!
But I'm not a horse, I'm just me!
Oh yes, in a chair, but I'm just like you,
It makes no difference to the person I am!
For I am as human as God made me true!

So did he have the right to rant and rave?
Did he have the right to scare me true?
Why did he feel he had the right to berate me!
Dammit!  He has no right to hurt me or you!
He's just another fool in the world today!
Another person who has no life of fun!
For had he a life as fun as mine…
He would never have done what he'd done!

Because he's just a stupid, sad, pathetic person!
I wouldn't even call him an animal!
Because that's an insult to the animal kingdom!

What goes around, comes around!
I sure the hell hope he gets his!!!!
