"Amusement Park Called 'MS' "

by Cheryl K.

 
I have looked and looked
and I have found,
One thing for sure--MS is a constant
Merry-Go-Round.
 
When vertigo makes your world
start to spin and twirl,
That is the ride that they call
the "Tilt-a-Whirl".
 
When depression takes you up,
and then down,
That must mean that the "Roller Coaster"
has come to town.
 
Have you begun to run into the walls?
You are then walking the
"Fun House" halls.
And the ride that they call
the "Octopus",
Are all the many symptoms reaching out to us.
 
Doctors, lawyers, man or woman,
it doesn't seem to care
Who comes to play,
who comes to share.
 
All the many problems
and all of the stress,
In this place, this "amusement park"
called MS.
