“Hurts When I Bleed”

By Malka 

 

Warning: due to complex sentence structure and angry sub-expletives, contents should not be operated with heavy machinery. Take with food. 

That the practice of medicine should come to such a sorry pass in the leading First World country is just another grain in the sandpaper that tears at our hemorrhoids. Many have skewered the ineptitude of Western medicine in its treatment of chronic illnesses, but our society remains drenched in unfairness and stupidity. There is no cure for this collective brain lesion…none, anyway, which would rival the profits gained from a non-curative drug that controlled symptoms and had to be purchased regularly over the span of decades. 

So, which blistering malpractice do I lance first? I’m particularly incensed by the insurance company which assures me that my monthly payment, collected by a surly dickwad clad in a long black robe who feebly drags a bloody sickle in the path of my angry shadow, should be reduced as my prospects of childbirth diminishes. When I finally do become an age where spawning evil should become an unlikelihood, are they going to argue that my costs remain high because I’m older and thus more likely to shatter my cranium or require an esophagus tumor removal? When will they be satisfied that my monthly expenditures as an uninsured government mule, with no government assistance, leave me at poverty level? When will I be granted a Papal dispensation for the years that I’d paid into the system for absolutely no eye, dental, or drug coverage while being sucked for a usurious fee on an annual basis? When are these leeching pricks going to feel the very same revolting sting that they administer every time they plunge into my puckered and bleeding bank account? This is like having an ex-spouse, only worse, because I never got laid for the privilege of being bilked for my cash. If I’m getting beaned in the butt, I prefer for it to be obvious. Mr. Insurance Man, show me your cock! 

And the drug companies. I knew I shouldn’t have gotten started, because now my nostril hairs are seared. I have spent a great portion of my lifetime as a governmental/medical experimental drug rat, and I advise in a violently spleen-spewing way that you ignore televised drug advertisements and that you research, via internet and library resources, every pill you caress with your tonsils. Again, I was screwed without the displeasure of meeting my rapist, and am now only beginning to understand how thoroughly they took me. They don’t care about you. In fact they would absolutely hate you if you weren’t so eager to give them your money. Why would you give anything to anyone who hates you?

Why?  

ASK YOUR DOCTOR. Unfortunately, your doctor will have neither the time nor incentive to give you an informed answer because he’s either too busy having his anus retucked after the fuckfest he endured for paying his exorbitant malpractice insurance, or that good doctor will be earning a part of that insurance toe-tag by prescribing high cost meds for a drug company kickback. That’s right, your own family MD could be an advertisement for the latest Celebrex, or perhaps the most expensive pimple cream in the entire world. If your uterus is beginning to hang out of your fur burger or your hemorrhoids are starting to sing, go directly to Ely Lilly Pharmaceuticals. After all, they’re the kind folk who, eight years ago, brought my psychotic depressive breakdown to fruition. I never had so much fun in my life. No, really, it was so frolicsome being their laboratory hamster, of the restless and psychotic knife-wielding variety that you always see on TV that beckons you to purchase more consumer perversions. 

Mamma always warned me to watch what I put in my mouth.
