I refuse

Just to be clear,

 I am going to mention the aches,

   and pains.

Yes.

  I am going to complain.

The thing is I could just sit there.

Well,

 to be honest,

  I am sitting there.

I have to make my hands work.

I refuse to lose my voice.

Some might wonder why I worry.

I can still tell a story,

 but my hands are part of the story.

There are so many stories left to be told.

Ah pain. What better place to express it than here

[Jon Roggie]

I just get cranky.

Complain as loudly as you like Jon, as that is part of the story you're living. People never understand pain, because it isnt in them causing pain. I blame my mother. She was a stoic woman to
O busy to complain about her arthritis, so I thought it a mere inconvenience. Now I have it, I fully understand that its like your bones trying to tear away from the flesh, that brings so many new and exciting swear words to my vocabulary.
And lets face it, if the world could complain as eloquently as you, then maybe people would listen more.

Sadly, I think you need to feel it, or be around somebody who does. I have it easy.
As far as my eloquence,
I simply restrain myself.
You learn an extensive collection of profanity in a kitchen.
