My Chronic Back Problem Poem by Deluke Muwanigwa

My chronic back problem

The tension is always palpable
After bloods have been done
When you go back for the docs review
Considering our unhealthy lifestyles
Gobbling gook de gook
Food we don't really cook
Breakfast at Chicken Inn
Lunch at Nandos
Supper at KFC
And our digestion supposedly remaining calm

So here i was expecting a shopping list of health problems
Was pleasantly surprised
All systems were fine
A bit of Vitamin B12 deficiency
And an excess of uric acid
Just a tad
I was glad

So i walked away with a prescription for Vitamin B12 jabs
And my original problem
My chronic back problem
Next is a visit to a neurosurgeon for an MRI scan
And my new motto after the docs visit was,
Can we overcome this chronic back problem?
'Yes We Can'
