Hi Patty. I'm LOL!. We certainly can chase our tail here on FanStory as the other aspects of our life go to wrack and ruin. I enjoyed reading this poem of frustration. No time off. I hope your eye gets better soon. Marilyn

Hi Marilyn; thank you so much for the lovely review and warm wishes. I'm sitting here with a tea bag on my left eye and typing one-handed,

Hi Patty. They say that a tea bag does work. Also, just warm compresses. I hope you feel better soon.

This is excellent. Your rhymes and meter are right on. Nothing is forced. If this had been a contest entry, it would have won. Please accept my imaginary FanStory dollars.

Doctor's fees into the Stratosphere
I'm facing that wall myself
Minor surgery is leading to major
Weak check book in the making.

This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read.

Hi Charlie; I'm so sorry to hear about your surgeries. I hope it all clears up soon and that your check book doesn't take too big of a hit.

nice use of envelope rhyme Patty I have actually never used this rhyme scheme before and I have written over 4000 rhyming poems.
Yes we are all slaves to the FanStory system. Tom was a very smart man when he devised this whole FanStory rankings system that some people get so hung up about.
health first FanStory second. Good luck with your stye.
thanks for sharing

Hi dip; thank you so much for your caring review. Dim lights, tea bags, and limited computer time (which I've used mostly for writing)

I appreciate your concern - and I think you should try an envelope rhyme - its kind of fun,

It seems that tonight is the night for playing with words. I just posted my first Haiku.

I do hope that you will feel better soon. Fan story can be hard when you need the virtual dollars

It is certainly wise to let your emotions rise and defeat any disguise when you are let down by a bad surprise in your eyes! Thanks for the fine read. His Grayness: Vance

Hi Vance; thank you so much for reading this silly little poem. Hopefully the tea bags, dim light and limited reading will heal me up,
