Prognosis of a hippie
My hip went south
My knee went down.i was the the crankiest person in town.
The pain i had i laid the blame.
To hospital and surgeons did i see
Into a cup i must pee
Stabbed with needles x rayed and bled
I was test from toes to head
A hip replacement they announced
Oh god i thought Metal. Titanium. Bionic me but from that pain i must be free.
It wont be that bad they said
I woke to blocks drains and weird pains.
My bum it aches
My knee is swollen
All my dignity has been stolen
But out of the fire i glimpse new life
Free of all pain and strife
I will walk
It will take some time
Sometimes a week sometimes nine
Back we go to step one again
Frustration anger ...nothing gained
The sun will shine as i go ahead
I will leave this awful bed
Pour a wine
Have a smile
Youre not the only one walking this mile.
