Hospital Haiku
When one of my clients went in for a Cesarean delivery, the hospital staff pointed me to the recovery room and said I should wait there. It was nearly an hour before the mother was wheeled in. During that hour I was completely alone in this large room with curtained recovery bays. Bored, I wrote the following:
Prodromal labor
Occiput posterior
Cesarean birth
***
Right now I could steal
thermometer probe covers
and bulb syringes
***
I could also test
my blood for glucose levels
with this kit I found
***
"vacuum oxygen"
"place sharp horizontally"
words on every wall
