Doctor Doctor

by Nicole Hyde

Doctor Doctor doctor doctor
I can’t see tell me
The future I’m feeling this ache
It won’t focus and you won’t listen
The pages blur to my heart beat
There are all these #’s Doctor!!! $$$$
All this $$$ & !!!! you talk about your money
You just sing your own worth
My praises you just see me
Don’t give me the chance get to know me, PLEASE!
To speak My soul is beauty
You don’t know my road my past is checkered but I made it here
You I am
Just see the prize (Not just a trophy)
But not the reward I have more to my wealth
Tell me it’s just my eyes That I don’t have idiot on my face
That I’m blind or you are deaf
But full of love and you can’t hear me screaming
Not empty with lust I am capable of all this and more
If you’d just shut up long Take me for me
Enough you’d find The future is here
You’d see all my faults and truimphs
I’m something to thank for standing by
You should keep close and your mouth shut.

Author's Note: Read in two columns then read each line across. I had a hard time formatting this on here but thanks to Mike McConnell for helping me (doing the hard stuff for me)!

Incredible! I read it in columns the first time, and thought it was good. When I read lines across, I was totally speechless at what was hidden in this work. I love it, great job Coco, immensely creative

Yes, it can be read either way and the poem speaks in no uncertain way. The beauty is some where deep and abstract and not in the concrete external. the msg. is clear.

I've read this four times now, and each a new meaning unfolds. Thank you for sharing. This was very enchanting and thought provoking.

i've loved this poem since the day you first shared it with me. the format, the content, everything fits perfectly. congrats on potd... even though the main pages destroys the format. (said you better lie down, the angels are watching)
