Get a Grip

John Cameron

​It’s all in your head dear or maybe it’s your age
Have you tried a neti pot or settling your rage

Of course it isn’t real it’s made up by your brain
You cannot have your needed meds just suffer with your pain

Hang on a mo what’s this now something’s going down
All the able bodied souls are going into town

They’re buying up the tissues, the cucumbers and cheese
They're using up deliveries to give themselves some ease

And now those who need the help are getting even less
Stop your whining get a grip and think is the answer yes

As you take a moment do you need another tissue for your arse
​Rest assured whatever happens this too shall pass

Barbara Ford-Hammond
