Hello Beachboy.
Thanks for sharing your anniversary thoughts, which seem to be not too far away from those I tried to capture yesterday in my latest rhyme.
I will post it here , but Admin have asked me to post these things separately on the forum so that they automatically get transferred to the 'collections' section so I'll do both.
Best wishes
Bill
DISTORTION - STOMAS (2).
Stomas are distortions where the
colon is twisted so we see
it protrudes from out of our tum
instead of coming from our bum.
This, for some, can be traumatic,
which can be quite problematic,
not just because it’s physical
but also psychological.
For certain ostomates may find
distortion comes within their mind
and a consequential result
is that they find this difficult.
When struggling with their wayward pooh
they need to change their point of view,
to twist it ‘round, so it will be
a friend instead of enemy.
Adjusting to this thing’s a must
but not everyone has that trust
in themselves, that they will cope
so, some may even give up hope.
Trauma comes in many forms
and does not stick to our known norms,
and yet, we know it distorts thought
when some ill-fated folks get caught.
When trauma lasts for many years
some victims are reduced to tears
because they cannot see the light
or a path to put things right.
This mental distortion is such
that it can very often touch
those folk, who normally are strong,
but trauma’s made their minds go wrong.
These people need help and support
to change perspectives that distort.
