P-Give Thanks
Be thanking
that we saved
much to plant
and breed

and much is lost
so give thanks
for the thanksgiving
sacrifice and
hunters skills.
for fresh and sewn
is now the reward.
all together
in rotation
each sharing
the planting
feast until all
is planted and
later threshed.
be it corn or potato
upcoming from the snow
to bring green
up from ground
thawing.
light rising
animals well fed,
happy thoughts
return.
eat well and warm
until winter returns
and thanks be given.

P-Banshee Run
A banshee screams into the night,
Up from my bed I do jump
where, when, who, how
as cloths jump on to my frame
as I say good bye and run into
the night duty call or just
a night. Running, across
ground icy, slippy and
dangerous but I run
like a mad man, for
someone dies tonight
or not, I hope for my
time is spent to get
their quick, safe, with
those who can do their best
to keep all alive.
Good the rig is warm
starts, all ready
connection, where
where and where, to
pick up quick on
on the way. Door open
and I am on my way.
Left, right, forward
on to the breach or just
make it so for others
There he or she is,
clothed like me
barely on running.
Jump inside, what we have
and on, lights flash or not
quiet night, so fast.
But keep it safe
There they are.
And in we go, with
cops help and firemen
too, we enter, what
to find. Scene Secure.
Fire or dangers human
helped to be gone.
Chief complaint,
cause and symptom
observed items
and allergies
drugs and issues
Blood pressure
observed issues
smell and touch
or just a twitch
Collar on, or splints
or bandages, IV in.
On board, but careful
one two three we go.
gurney on and comfy
for the cold can kill
into the ride we do go
run run run other times
splint, tape, four by four
or just morale support
On into the night to
place of healing I do hope
Doctors waiting, nurses to
cops taking statements
one two three to another
bed, and monitors
doctors working
nurses helping
bags pumping,
air in, nose or mouth
blood and fluids
warming up, and alive
not dead, and cold.
Heart pumping
lungs filling
bowels released
catheter in or not
drip drip drip
goes the meds,
saline and plasma.
Stitches if needed.
Alcohol suspected
Family there or not
or none, or next.
Bruises seen, sores
many, smells awful.
Cloths in a corner
Reports to do and
remember, for later
times and legal or
just what we miss
if anything?
Transport, ready
bag sled, and shred
papers, ready and comfy
escort here,
family said good
bye. Off to the port
we go, holding hand
all is well to the plane.
Thank you.
An on to the lands
below, for better care
for stable is okay
but more must happen
or does or just in case.
Sadly some do not
get so far, or hurts
abide and come.
Not all saved, it hurts
but grieve abides
guilt or just how?
Done better or at all?
Why, no trust of us
their friends or just
things happen?
Driving bad or drunk?
Issues of age or time
conditions come
not all live, some short
some long, but
Hearts give out, lungs
deflate, time is here
or just sugar low or high.
abuse, and pain, no will
to live or just ..
Good Bye

For all who go into the night with the hope that they can save someone.
----------
P-2P or not 2P (reconstructed)
Two P or not Two P
That is a question
To go to 2p
or not go to 2P
to risk
the threat
of commitment
or to take my meds
and there fore
end them,
at least for now.

P-Accept ME 2017
Accept me for me
not for who you
expect me to be
want me to be
demand me to be
grew me to be
assume me to be
pay me to be
and/or even,
beat me to be
or whip me to be
or(I am)supposed to be
but who I am
and nothing else
So accept me for me.
NOTHING ELSE!
