Pills for the Homeward Bound

‘Pills for the Homeward Bound’ concludes the ‘Pills on the Ward Series’. Defining features of this anthology are restless verses primed to divert sluggish thoughts away from pending medical appointments to refocus on the fabric of society. The hospital series features plays punctuated with original artwork, plays and poems by the author. While distracting patients is a theme throughout the series, each book may be read independently and in any order.

Various office holders suffer sleepless nights thinking about how best they can serve the public during their tenure in public office. Hospital inmates may discover solace by offering these brave policy makers some advice to ease their tremendous burden of social responsibility. Resolving the illness in society can be a cathartic process simultaneously recovering both the patient and society.

Society making a bee-line towards establishing repressive world governance provides a rich source of dark satire for the play ‘Three Bags of Sugar’. Intrigue is, as always, enhanced with illustrations using original artwork by the author. As throughout the author’s hospital series, plays, poems and fables are richly enhanced with an assortment of characters ranging from woolly minded despots to sycophantic flunkies for one world governance. Though intended for a patient destined for a long spell, the verses may be read by anyone seeking asylum from dominant ideology.
