Untitled poem this morning

Untitled


I put all my fingers into the morning

and pulled out the birth of the nation

waiting for a cry that would make us live

all these fingers can do is type

Imagine the fist it takes to defend offenses

you can't see but the shadow cast

and what it gives off against raging sun

You may think hushing away a newborn idea

and sleeping the weight of the world from your eyes

would make the words that much more sweet

who's been a-pulling my head and yours

insisting we check against wrong or illness

all we do is finally open our eyes

see the unknown surrounding of a working world

kicking our way through our own smallness

and going into arms not made for law


s.m.g.

closed my bank debit card

 will go into the bank for cash, and I just ordered checks, the ones with carbon paper underneath each  and I'm not getting a pre-paid card for stores.  just cash. Won't be buying Anything online.  wanted to do more in person anyway. $39.55 and $39.99 fraudulent charges showing up on online banking I'll have to absorb these. I think I'm safe.

I'm just hearing how great Women's Health Services are in Clinton, Iowa.

 Did not do proper care for me while pregnant, didn't find out I was carrying two babies til a doctor came from Iowa City, two weeks before delivery. Went back recently to get a pap, and the doctor there couldn't get it, took up to 4 speculums. I told them everything, I'm going thru menopause, no offer of estrogen, or any kind of pill, told her I'm having pain from fibroid cysts in my uterus.  Nothing, ignored. This place should be shut down!!
