Up
Before
The
Sun,
To
Do
What
Must
Be
Done.
I have
To
Get
An
X-ray,
My
Doctors
Say,
To
See
Beneath
My
Skin,
And
Check
What’s
Going
On
Within.
I will
Either
Live
Or
Die,
So
Let
Them
Try
To
Cure
My
Ills
With
Pills
And
Such,
Before
They
Must
Do
Too
Much,
In
Hot
Desire
To
Drag
Me
Through
Surgical
Fire.
I put
Myself
In
Their
Hands,
And
Strive
To
Meet
Complex
Demands.
I have
A
Need
To
Live,
And
They
Have
Lots
Of
Life
To
Give.
