The Organic Poet
Us, them and me @surgicalscribe
Topic - Support
Pull me, push me
Stretch me, squash me
Hurry me, hinder me
But please take time to help me
Give me support
Support me to grow
Grow me to help
But first, take time to help me
When I falter, steady me
When I fall, lift me
When I fear, comfort me
When I fail, take time to help me
Help my words have meaning by listening
my actions purpose by seeing
my role significance by acknowledging
And make my contribution credible by commending
Then I will rise
Soar to great heights
Stand on the shoulders of giants
Lifted, supported and held there by you
all of you
With you
For you
About you
It’s never been about me
Perhaps now it should be?
Me, you, him, her
Them
Us.
We are all deserving, all me.

A small bio about:
By day Tony climbs the greasy pole of clinical hierarchy. Not yet at the top but high enough to feel the pole sway and have his grip challenged by the envious wind of achievement. Looking down on the pates and gazes of his own history, at times he feels dizzy with lonely pride. By night he takes solace, swapping scalpel for scripts and begins his training and climbing again, in the creative world of writing. His writing is an attempt to unify the twenty-four hours. @surgicalscribe seeks to connect the clinical and creative arts of surgery, science and writing. Hoping to do for medicine and surgery through creative writing what Prof Cox has done for physics with television.
