Puppet To My Medicine
Who Can I Trust????
Doctors and Medical Staff prescribe medicines
Sometimes, they are good for you
Sometimes, they are not
The side effect: could I afford the consequences?
How long should I be taking them?
A lifetime or temporary?
Doctors say, Everyone is different
Are Doctors like lawyers, too?
They make you feel fear if you refuse to take
certain Medications and Vaccinations
Am I their guinea pig?
I felt so betrayed, just like I would a trusted narcissist
It's all my fault because I trusted them to care
for my well-being.
WHO CAN I TRUST?

Trouble at the Tea Leafing Café
The rain had started right around the time that Annie was buttering her second thick slice of homemade toast for breakfast, and hadn’t paused since. Not that anyone could tell. The windows of the café were fogged over, and with every seat filled with happy customers munching on fresh baked pastries or steaming bowls of the delicious soup of the day, it was hardly surprising. Annie looked around the room, finally taking a moment to breathe after the lunch time rush. Her old life already felt like a bad memory, a part of her history, always, but just that. History.

Your gut & God make one heck of a team. Sadly many of these doctors feel as if they can walk on water and that your input doesn't matter. Great work on this piece!
I don't trust doctors at all because we are just business to them and all they care about is money. I'm so sorry this is happening to you 🥺
My doctors are the same! Very good!
This really taps into the confusion and trust issues around medicine! You’ve captured that feeling of being stuck between needing help and questioning if it’s worth it. Totally relatable!
The cost of the medication alone will make you sick
Wow, thoughts most of us can relate to. Nice poem.
