Extreme Pain : Dentist

written by Poet : Jeff Pelsang


As a man I have felt pain of every kind,

From broken bones to cuts and scrapes, even to a broken heart and a battered mind,

Pain is something a man can tolerate,

Often it helps to strengthen and motivate,

When it comes to aa toothache I am brought to my knees,

From anbesol to Motrin, the suffering I try to ease,

I cant imagine a country so far advanced like the USA,

A country that gives aid to many other countries, millions by the day,

A country not taking care of its own as we suffer in our homes and on the streets,

From healthcare to hunger, People are suffering throughout the week,

Tonight it's my turn as my smile has turned to pain,

Nerve pinching and headache causing pain puring down like rain,

I jam my gums with sharp objects using pain to numb the pain,

I pace the house in shear agony almost going insane,

For those with insurance not a care for my needs,

They'll vote down healthcare options for their own health care greed,

Its the haves and have nots in battle once again,

Those pampered will always win as they buy off all the votes,

Lower middle class is feeling the pinch, its like being fucked again by the "Red Coats",

Fair representation, it's a joke as they rule the system,

Most of all they make up shit as they talk and forget to listen,

The time for our voice to be heard is now,

Demand the basic needs and raise our voices to a growl,

One roar from the many to uproot the wrongs,

Spread the message in poetry, news and songs,

For tonight my pain is extreme and I am not alone,

Please vote for Public Health Care plans and help ease my horrid moans....
