A is for arthritis
B is for bad back
C is for the chest pains. Corned beef? Cardiac?
D is for dental decay and decline
E is for eyesight--can't read that top line
F is for fissures and fluid retention
G is for gas (which I'd rather not mention and not to forget other
gastrointestinal glitches)
H is high blood pressure
I is for itches, and
lots of incisions
J is for joints, that now fail to flex
L is for libido--what happened to sex? Wait! I forgot about K!
K is for my knees that crack all the time (But forgive me, I get a
few lapses in my
M-memory from time to time)
N is for nerve (pinched) and neck (stiff)
and neurosis
O is for osteo-for all the bones that crack
P is for prescriptions, that cost a small fortune
Q is for queasiness. Fatal or just the flu? Give me another pill and
I'll be good as new!
R is for reflux--one meal turns into two
S is for sleepless nights, counting my
fears on how to pay my increasing medical bills!
T is for tinnitus--I hear bells in my ears and the word "terminal"
also rings too near
U is for urinary and the difficulties that flow (or not)
V is for vertigo, as life spins by
W is worry, for pains yet found
X is for X ray--and what one might find
Y is for year (another one I'm still alive)
Z is for zest for surviving the symptoms my body's deployed,
And keeping twenty-six doctors gainfully employed
