SUPPORT HOSE ARE KILLERS

Contributed by lovingcritters on Thursday, 26th February 2004 @ 01:36:14 PM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry





Sometimes in a woman's lfe,
A Dr. prescribes support, alleviating strife.
Mine said, "Support Hose for you Connie
Your feet are swelling grossly!"

Had no idea what would come of this?
Bought very expensive stretch hose,
non-swelling bliss?
Had to be measured, ankle, calf, thigh.
Best buy three pair, stock good supply.

What a nightmare, if I'd only known
My head, I'd rather be hit with a hailstone!
My critters watch me putting on hose, signal....
I'm going to leave them sometime today!

They get all nervous, and cry, then whine
My big toe won't fit in these hose of mine!
I stretch, fetch, going for the homestretch.
I pull, handful, push-pull, handful, pull, wretch!

Sweating now, over aggravated exasperation!
Circling Critters, moaning, me
stretching with passion!
Like a bootstrap, trying to jump into the toe....
Steady as you go, pulling, twisting my elbow!

Painful cries emit from my now hollow chest!
I'm depressed, have to stop and rest....
I have to wear these things or a blood clot get!
Blood clot threat? I'm having
a heart attack fret!

My Critters go for help, they're only
hope for me.
Montie appears, and laughs as hard
as can be!
"You think this is so funny, my toe won't fit?"
He did get my toe in, he gets some credit!

Now for the heel, you've got to be kidding?
Hemming, hawing, heaving,
hauling, hanging...
So tight around my ankle...no blood can pass!
Now my toe has turned purple,
I'm ailing, I gasp!

Struggling quandary, determination drained.
Slowly, deliberately, stretch
to thigh maintained.
I'm not doing the other leg, as I thought...
One leg is covered, only half of a blood clot!

and you cannot see the shadow..
It's what sunflowers do!"

This poem is a killer!!!!!! I laughed until I almost couldn't breathe. The scenario played out in my mind and I laughed so hard I couldn't stop. You are a delightful comedienne, my dear friend.

Hugs and gales of laughter,
Rita
