I relate to your emotions. I admire your willingness to discuss the darkness of what the human condition can reach. You tell me what you feel. Maybe feel and then tell........describe it as you feel it rather than feel it and then tell what you feel. Your amazing in your thoughts and what goes on in your mind. I am hooked to your stories.

Thanks so much, esslow, I truly appreciate that!
Comment from cinderbella
This is a very powerful and thought-provoking poem which asks questions to which there are no clear-cut answers.
The poem is chilling, and the message comparatively so. It is written well, and certainly holds the reader's attention. I quite liked it. :) Sandra

This is crazy scary and the sound effects make it even more so. I was just a little lost in the way this whole thing happened. Maybe you left out details so it would be more effective. It is spooky just as it is.

Thanks so much, emjaihammond. It's simply about the direction our health care industry is taking, it's all there in my author's notes, my friend...

Well now, that truly is very spooky! It all makes sense now. Sorry I missed the author's notes. My mistake.
Comment from Liz Dunbee
I found this spine-chilling and quite fearful. You certainly created an atmosphere of horror in this one. Someone is playing God here. Well done Dean, on another perfect contribution.

Thanks, 'Sak. If I creep you out, I consider that a HUGE accomplishment, LOL...
As far as Gary goes, he had been struggling with some health issues last I heard. He pops in from time to time, but not nearly as often as he used to.
Thanks again, buddy! I really appreciate it.

Comment from write hand blue
Yet another of your creations, written to the same high standard.
I see in your notes you highlight the dilemma facing the medical profession. When to turn off the machine. Strict rules will have to be created (if they already haven't).
A most enjoyable read.

You make some great points in this piece. The writing is on the wall in the case of our medical sciences, and the distribution of health care in our country. I know I can't afford to live to be too old, he he. Damn fine write, Dean. Nice work, Bill

Comment from 9999pool
Yes, bias in advocating treatment to certain patients in hospitals by the administration can be erroneous and could be unfair. Written on the walls patients can face and see their death sentence if not administered on time or being treated unfairly.
As the court decides and gives out punishment, hospital administrations are doing the same but this time it is a life and death question.
Great write and well penned.
Cheerio, Ritchie. :)).

Comment from babylonia
I guarantee that whichever the decision is made ... to help or not to help ... the poor will die and the rich will live. Reminds me of the book "Your Heart Belongs to Me" by Dean Koontz. It was about how rich people can get everything and use the poor to get it.
Nicely done.
Love,
Barbara

Yes, you are absolutely right about that, Barbara. Also, that's a great book by Koontz, the very man my pen name is fashioned after. I couldn't seem to make Dean King work, LOL...
I appreciate your thoughts and kind review...
