Sciatica

Writer: Keith TraylingKeith Trayling

I have this pain, going to my brain,

But it starts from my right hip.

I write this verse, 'cause it's just got worse

And it makes me fill like shit.

With these words that I write, hoping that it just might,

Distract me from the agony.

Down my leg right to my ankle, maybe I should be thankful,

That it's one leg only and not all three!

Stretch the limbs, I've done the things,

The experts told me to do.

But there's no improvment, in my movement.

So I search for something new.

Now a chiropractor, knows what's the matter,

At first let's stop the pain.

Then exercise and manipulate, this will start to alleviate,

And free the nerve, that is our aim.

Packs of cold and hot, doesn't help a lot.

But with the TENS machine I'll reach my goal,

And while it's sore, I'll just swallow more,

Of my new found friend , Cocodamole.

As a fellow sciatica sufferer - I understand your pain whilst finding your poem highly amusing which sems a contradiction :-)

LOL I love that the pain is in one leg and not all three! Pain sucks but at least you're not a tripod :-)
