Our society is confusing

Our society is confusing by Rob Hood©12-17-08

THE LEFT HAND DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE RIGHT HAND IS

DOING.

THE LAWYER DOES NOT KNOW WHO HIS CLIENT IS SUING.

THAT'S THE WORLD THAT WE KNOW.

IF SOMETHING MAKES SENSE, IT WON'T GO.

AND NOW NO INTEREST IS ACCRUING!

My thoughts on radiation treatment

My thoughts on radiation treatment by Rob Hood©12-16-08

Sing this to the tune of "My favorite things" by Rodgers and Hammerstein

BLISTERS IN ARMPITS

ON BACK AND

ON SHOULDER,

THEY'RE MORE

IRRITATING

AS THIS TREATMENT

GETS OLDER.

I'M A MAN

IN TERRIBLE PAIN

HOPING THIS

TREATMENT

WILL WORK

TO MY GAIN!

ON MY CHEST

YOU'LL FIND

MANY LINES.

THEY ARE ARRANGED

TO THE X-RAY'S

DESIGNS.

I'LL BE ELATED

WHEN I FINISH

THIS BIT.

MY CRAZY

DOCTOR

SAID IT

WOULDN'T

HURT A WHIT.

THOUGH MY

CHEST BURNS

WHILE IT'S

COLD OUT

I CAN'T LET

IT GET

ME DOWN.

IF IT CAN

RID OF

THIS TERRIBLE

DISEASE

I'LL NEVER WEAR

A FROWN!

THERE'S A MORTGAGE

ON MY BODY

AND THE CO-OWNER

IS NEAR

BUT INSTEAD OF

BEING A BANKER

HE'S A DOCTOR MY DEAR!

AS I GROW OLDER

AND EACH OF MY PARTS

LOSE IT'S WARRANTY

I HAVE TO RELY

ON DOCTORS

TO MAKE LONG LIFE

MORE OF A CERTAINTY.

I WAS SELF RELIANT

WHEN I WAS JUST

A YOUTH

BUT THAT CAN'T BE

WHEN ONE

IS LONG OF TOOTH.

My fears

My Fears by Rob Hood©12-2-08

I WAS ON THE

RADIATION TREATMENT

TABLE WHEN THE

POWER WENT OUT

AND IMAGES OF

"DAYS OF THE TRIFFIDS"

FILLED ME WITH DOUBT.

WILL ANYONE COME TO GET

ME FROM THIS ROOM?

WILL I EVER REACH

THE SURFACE OF

A WORLD FILLED

WITH GLOOM?

WHAT WILL BE

MY FUTURE?

IS ANYONE

AROUND?

WILL ANYONE

REDO MY SUTURE?

I DON'T HEAR

A SOUND!

WAIT!

THE POWER IS

COMING

BACK ON!

NOW MY FEARS

CREEP AWAY.

AND I AM

ALL SET FOR

A WARM

PRETTY DAY!

Chaos

Chaos by Rob Hood©12-2-08

WHEN THINGS GO WRONG,

I LOSE MY MIND.

I SEARCH FOR IT ALL OVER.

IT'S SO HARD TO FIND.

I NEED LIFE TO STAY THE SAME.

WHEN I LOSE MY STRUCTURE

IT'S HARD TO STAY

IN MY GAME.

IF I HAVE A PLAN

AND I KNOW

WHAT TO DO,

I CAN RELAX

CONFIDENT THAT

I'LL SEE THINGS THROUGH!

THIS HAS BEEN

A VERY DIFFICULT DAY.

I HOPE THAT I HAVE

FEW OF THEM.

OF THAT I PRAY!

BUT I AM HAPPY

THAT I'M ALIVE!

I'LL HANDLE MY PROBLEMS

BECAUSE I HAVE THE DRIVE

TO HANDLE WHATEVER

COMES MY WAY.

BE IT NIGHT

OR BE IT DAY.

ALL I NEED IS TO

REGROUP AND

THINK OUT MY PLANS

THEN I'LL HAVE

A STRUCTURE

THAT MEETS MY DEMANDS.

I NEED TO KEEP

THINGS SIMPLE.

THAT IS MY PLAN.

THEN I'LL BE

AS HAPPY

AS ANY MAN!
