Poem about going through Menopause.
There is a wet gorilla on my back; Sweat and confusion I don’t lack
I carry him daily most places I go; the suffering he causes most people don’t know
I get looks of scorn from the folks in my life; their reactions to me, render much strife
They agitate me with words of distain; I am suffering here and they want to complain
Complain I don’t focus, I’m clumsy and lame; They just can’t see my pain
My hormones are raging, my ovaries they took; I live in Paradise and want to write a book
A book about sunshine, happiness and relocation; cause Tennessee is the best state in the nation
But I can’t focus, I’m clumsy and wet: can’t concentrate for all of this sweat
I write little ditties to relieve some of the stress; they say that time will clear up this mess
So I bide my time till the process is done; I look to the future cause the present is no fun
