So how are you feeling

I’m ok Doc, but my tail feels heavy

Not quit normal

No, like it’s been broken

And my claws are breaking

Like you need more calcium...

Fairy

During my yearly check ups I have to fly around the room as they check my speed. They check the conditions of my wings and how fast it flutters. Then they see how well I can move things around without touching it.


Somehow they’re able to check my weight even though I’m light as a feather. I also do x-rays to see how my bones are. As well as other tests to see if I can identify things or what I w...

Bigfoot’s Check-Up

A Bigfoot goes to the doctor

For his annual check-up

To make sure he’s okay

To make sure he’s in good health


The doctor measures the amount of fur Bigfoot has

Bigfoot had a lot

Which is very healthy for Bigfoots like him

The doctor got inside Bigfoot’s fur


To see how deep his fur was

It was profound

It took the doctor a whole hour to get out of the fur

Which is again healthy for a Bigfoot


He t...

Reflexes

The large creature sat on the check up chair and swung their legs a little while waiting. They waited for what felt like an hour in silence until the door finally opened again with an older ogre who peered over her glasses. “What are you here for today?”

Take Two And Call Me In The Morning

“I’ve been just exhausted lately. No matter how much sleep I get. I am just beat,” Periwinkle said.


“Beyond the fatigue, do you have any other symptoms?” Dr. Acorn said.


Stifling a yawn, Periwinkle reflected on the last few weeks. Her doctor’s office hadn’t changed since childhood. Hand-drawn pictures and family photos were tacked to every wall of the hobbit’s medical office.


“No I feel fine...

Prognosis Good

A giant thud on a massive scale

Boy, you’re still heavy as a whale.

Verdant with glow; sign of good health.

Look a little fat; hoarding the wealth.

Wouldn’t hurt to snack on some coal.

Exercise try to drop and roll....

Drink

The fire in the dragon, was dry as the outside sand

There was no wet kisses, of love or hold of hand


Claws had no moisture, or water to make them glow

Off to see the doctor, with the helping bag let’s go


He put his old glasses, on the Dino’s spiked head

You must drink more liquid, the good man had said


Looking at the scales, on his gigantic ever wagging tail

He knew that this physical, if he...

Survival Of The Fittest.

“I hear you are expecting, that’s wonderful!”

The doctor smiled, kneeling by the pool.


The merman smiled happily as his partner looked nervous. “It’s out first brood.” He explained.


The doctor bought out the scanning device typically used for dolphins and whales that lived in the aquarium turned hospital.

Maybe it was human instinct, but the doctor put the device on the females stomach and turne...

Last Appointment Of The Day

“Dr. Tamara your last appointment of the day is here.”


The nursing assistant stands aside as a woman follows behind, she’s dressed in all black with a hint of red on her lips and accenting her leather jacket and studded boots.


“Come in Yelena, how was your journey?”


Yelena takes a seat on the cold blue chair and Dr. Tamara lowers her down so she’s laying flat on her back.


“It was good thank yo...
