You don't look sick someone cried
A glistened tear springs to the eye
No visual clues like walking stick,
Ignorant comment makes me sick
You’re not really qualified to say
My doctors are so please go away
You cast an eye down my body
You look up you look down
Your mouth curled, eyes frown
You look at me with disbelief
You judge me guilty, Benefit thief!
Never judge a book by its cover
Look beneath the pages you'll discover
I am genuine and really sick
Are you ignorant or just thick?
If you swapped places with me
You would understand and agree
I deserve my benefit, now taken away
Now leave me alone to enjoy my day

That is really good. You are so good at this. I wish I could find that other one you wrote. It was very good.
You said that you did not know what else to write about. I suggested nature and you were going to try it.
I still have not found it beut will keep trying to find it for you.
