The downside isn't really injury, fear of injury or the process of fighting back from injury. The downside, the very worst thing in the world, is surgery.

There are some cases in which the sense of injury breeds not the will to inflict injuries and climb over them as a ladder, but a hatred of all injury.

Technically, the last number of years, partially from the injury, it's been difficult to push forward but I felt even before the injury that I still could do more and was sort of at a stalemate.

Socrates

One who is injured ought not to return the injury, for on no account can it be right to do an injustice; and it is not right to return an injury, or to do evil to any man, however much we have suffered from him.

No Guarantee

The only guarantee is,
There is no guarantee.
The manual is missing.
Only issued with one set of everything.
A Guaranteed obsolescence,
Built in redundancy.
A no return policy
Once it has left the factory,
Its cord severed it cannot be exchanged.
This does not affect your statutory rights.
Nonetheless most problems,
Any damage done,
Or injury inflicted,
The unit will self repair.
However any parts which go missing
Sadly, cannot be replaced,
As there are no spares available
So please look after it.
It can however self replicate
If joined with another unit
The resulting unit will,
With luck, be ready in nine months.
It will give good service for many years.
The factory cannot take responsibility
For the unit having a mind of its own.
The coating,
Which is both water proof
And self regenerating
Will give many years of service
If regularly cleaned and kept dust free,
However it is liable to wrinkle with age.
Warning!
When first issued will need,
Without exception, care
For about the first Eighteen years.
After that is will just need regular guidance
And a yearly MOT.
At its expiratory date
The unit may be easily disposed of
As it is totally green and recyclable.

Self Epitaph

Good friend, for Jesus' sake, forbear,
To dig the dust enclosed here.
Blessed be the man that spares these stones,
And cursed be he who moves my bones.

What I Call It

I had a brain injury.
I have a brain injury.
I injured my brain.
There.
I said it four times.
 
Wrote poem once about
a moth flew round light
in circles till dead.
It
flies through my mind still,
time after time.
Afraid.
What I've lost.
Not quite the same.
Does it matter?
 
Don't think.

Nothing is good or bad.

I rescued a cat.
Is it a noble act?
Some more rats would die.
I killed a cat.
Is it a cruel act?
It spares many rats?
No act is absolutely good or bad.

Sonnet: Each One is Strong However Weak

The Lion thinks ‘tis meant for tougher tasks;
And spares the Lioness and cubs hard works;
The Lioness is tough too though it masks;
Appearing gentle while it lurks.

Man keeps all tougher jobs in his purview,
And spares women and children from much risk;
Yet, when ‘tis time, women too change their hue,
And children too don’t always like lambs frisk.

The weaker creatures have their tougher side,
That is brought out in times of dangers, need;
One’s toughness is something, we wish to hide,
Don’t underestimate even a weed.

Each creature has innate strengths well-concealed;
In times of need, this gets sometimes revealed.

I should have forfeited my own self-respect, and perhaps the good opinion of my countrymen, if I had failed to resent such an injury by calling the offender in question to a personal account.

Time Spares Nobody

Time spares nobody
Lying in the grave
Under mound of sand
He heard voices of people
Crying and sobbing
They had come to bury
One more body
Their expression of grief
Meant nothing to him
He sarcastically smiled
Remembered
Long back
In the same way
People known, unknown
Had brought him here
Crying and sobbing
Visited him regularly
Slowly they stopped coming
Now he lies all alone
Same will happen to the one
Who just joined the fraternity?
Memories fade slowly
Time spares nobody
Does any body
Really love somebody
The question
Haunted him regularly

We have some real political differences among us, but we all share the same goals: clean air and water, injury free workplaces, safe transportation systems, to name a few of the good things that can come from regulation.
