God that poem. That’s 5 mins of life I’ll never get back.

 

Much prefer

 

Lie on your back

Heals to Jesus

Think of handbags

This is something that always gets up my nose.

While prose can include some 'poetic' phrases, splitting up a piece of prose into uneven lines does not make it a poem.

There's Toast, dismissing in one sentence the only form of poetry I can write. :lol:

There's nothing wrong with a good prose piece.  No need to dismember it in the cause of "poetry".

Tbf I feel the same about a good bed and the cause of art, but hell if I got a Tracy Emin sized check I'd probably change my opinions very quickly too.

Okay I admit it, this is bothering me.

 

I presume that this is instructions to a woman from a man.

Also I presume that the word 'heals' is simply atrocious spelling and the correct word intended is 'heels'.

 

But then I imagine being a woman lying on her back trying to point her heels at Jesus (who again I presume is in heaven) and I worry that my wife is simply not flexible enough.

 

(plus I presume that in the final line the reference to handbags the intention is not to link the fact that the bottom of a handbag has more germs on it than a dog's anus).

 

So much to think about in three lines it's ruining my afternoon at work.

So basically she and her husband had sex in a field .

 

Essentially, yeah. Or, to try and put it slightly more clearly in Leah's inimitable prosy style:

 

I

was

lying in my

Shaman friend's tipi

enrobed in rags

stylish

looking like

a fucking 15th century clairvoyant

then he came

in

found me

composing my shit

told me

impassioned

let's perform

carnal happy fun times

neath

the scintillating night sky

stars glistening 

glimmering

dancing

spectating

the bloody perverts

behold

we connect

like Katie Hopkins that time

with her ex

in that field

fear

rises in my belly

hoping

no one nearby

is brandishing

a camera

She was only eligible for a targeted drug thanks to her Chinese heritage on her mother's side? :angry:

Probably just means that a specific targeted  cancer drug was known to work especially well and   better on people of direct or close  chinese or Asian descent. Some drugs are like that and work better on people of specific ethnic backgrounds scientists are starting to understand.

Aye, well it makes a pleasant change from being targetted by violent racists, eh?

Violent racists: British people who are paying contributions for a drug they're not eligible to get?

Incredible, how quickly people play the race card. :facepalm:

Yes, because the history of medicine is that medical techniques found to work on any sub-section of society have never been developed further. Hence why most of us are still dying of smallpox.

She's been on chemo once it was determined the targeted therapies weren't working. Pretty sure she'd be dead by now otherwise.

And try saying  to yourself:

I deserve to live.

I deserve life.

I am worthy of love. 

I am loved.

Take as often as required!!!!!

And go tell someone you love them, starting with yourself.

I’ll go first: I love you. Now pass it on.

Namaste – a thousand blessings.

 

 

I tried it. People around me thought otherwise.
