Dear Doctor

by Shirley Ann Bunyan

If your cousin’s a weirdo, your wife is a drunk or your ma-in-law’s mentally ill,
just write it all down in a list of the issues and send it to Dr Phil.
He’ll sit you on stage while you rant and rage before cameras and studio lights.
He’ll tell you what’s wrong as he chuckles along, then pays experts to put it all right.
