Diy Surgery -

Some days it almost seems as if I could operate on myself

Nurse!

The screens!

I could scrape barnacles from connective tissue

Open up, clear off the muck

In a trice I could slice myself back to health

Reach in to shave blisters off aching muscles

Breathe life into anaemic corpuscles

Smooth out crevices, no waiting lists, no fuss

(Ahhh.) Releasing all the tension on which cluster headaches play

Soothe creaking joints, just anoint with gentle balm

Police the flashpoints, keep them from harm

And wipe the pain away

Pop back keystone vertebrae

With my very own keyhole surgery

A quick Op, then dancing — all day

Dancing all day, dancing all!

day

Do it yourself, do it yourself

Do it yourself, do it yourself

Do it
