My skeleton has brittle bones;
That’s what the test reveals,
Another prime example of
What aging often steals.
I could take some injections or
A course of daily pills
To build my bones back, just in case
I suffer any spills.
Though if I manage not to fall,
My bones are working fine.
Still, if I trip and break my hip,
I’ll know the fault is mine.
The quandary I am in is like
A coin toss - tails or heads?
To trust my balance not to fall
Or cave and take the meds?
Right now it’s 50 - 50.
Will my osteoporosis
Leave my no-meds skeleton in peace
Despite my diagnosis?
