Jumping Through Hoops

Going through a book of old drawings,

Found a Few of these… Jumping through hoops.
It was when I was applying for disability benefits.
One more form, one more phone call, more letters,
Need more information.
Are You Even Disabled Enough!!??
They question You,
You question Yourself.
If You need to apply for benefits,
Get to know the program,
And Criteria, Requirements.
My suggestion: Take notes before and after applying,
What is your day like.
Not what You tell your Mom or kids “I’m fine”
No, How Your Real life day is.
It’s important to have notes when they ask you all the questions.
Later You can revisit your diary and marvel that it all worked out in the end.

Arrows the Thin Veil & Hoops


 it was not until I looked again, that I saw the similarities
arrows, a blindfold, the bystanders
my vision, and the random stabbing reminders
of that MonSter



this week, radio my entertainment,
the announcer and guest were talking disability and the financial burden on social security
they said it was easy to grant, some young ones didn't need it.
correction: not easy, not a get rich quick, jumping thru hoops,
there seems to always be one more.

no message, really,
i called the radio and spoke my side.
then hung up
and never said all of it.
maybe that's a start

Jumping through Hoops

Jumping through Hoops

One after another,
hoops appeared,
Obstacles, challenges,
None of it made sense.
