MULTI-TASKING US.
While being host to ostomies,
and seeing most of our feaces
go in those bags that carry waste
with some spare time we may be faced.
A lot of us have other things
apart from what the stoma brings.
Like cancers, old-age and disease
and so we have to cope with these.
Taking trials and tribulations,
making all considerations,
most ostomates don’t make much fuss
but multi-task along with us.
Folks know we’re made to multi-task
so they are not afraid to ask.
Mow the lawns and cut the hedge,
I’ve even made the kids a sledge.
As we succeed with life’s demands,
sometimes accede to wife’s commands.
We will still do the household chores
even though we know it bores.
Pastimes, hobbies, things we do
like making time for the O.U. (Open University)
There’s bars and cars and motorbikes
walking, talking on long hikes.
Most people seem to understand
when I say I’m in a band
and even with my ostomy
I’ll do my campanology. (bellringing)
There are no bounds to what we do
to what we found that we all knew.
And as we multi-task we say
there’s nothing can stand in our way.
