DREAM ON

Trying to remember the dream I was having as I awakened

Withering in pain.

I could remember the part about why I was suing the LDS Church

But I couldn’t remember why I was suing the State of Utah.

Think.  Think. Think.

Go over again why I’m suing the Church.

Because they advocate big families.

If my devout parents had only had four children

I wouldn’t have been born;

And wouldn’t be in excruciating pain, even in my sleep

From a pinched nerve C5-6 vertebrae

Shooting sharp pains down my left shoulder and arm.

No relief; no matter which way I twist or turn.

No amount of heat or ice reprieves.

In my dream I even thought of suing

the descendents of Scottish scientist

and Nobel laureate Alexander Fleming;

who is attributed with discovering penicillin.

Two weeks after my marriage I surely would have died

If not for antibiotics curing an acute kidney infection.

I definitely would not be suffering now.

My rational mind cannot come up with a motive

To sue the State of Utah

Except they are the home of the Mormons

Who encouraged my parents to have a big family.
Utah has the highest birth rate
and largest families in the country.

Companion to a painful pinched nerve

Is yet another outbreak of Staph infection

With a fresh nest of sores each morning

To torment and antagonize me;

Again passing the infection onto Eddy.

Why should he have to suffer?

If I hadn’t been born;

He wouldn’t have been born.

YES!

I think I have enough evidence to sue.

(with apologies to my younger brother & sisters and children & grandchildren.)

DO I WATCH TOO MANY BOSTON LEGAL RERUNS?
