will clean your points

beginnings
are always
quick
but endings

clinging to my heels
I hem and haw
catch my breath
fly thru denial
wade past tides
search for quick!

in At Albany Medical Center, Poetry Tags: At Albany Medical Center, comply, Doctor Signatures, give and take, give trust, healthy discharge, like a badge, Negotiate, no supplements from home, patient, power nurse, scraps of power, take hope
Negotiate
power nurse
at the helmsubs a-watching …
for some scraps of power
drifting down
scoop them up
wear them like a badge
for the poking order of the dayPatients tethered
to IV’s, toilet hats, measurements, needles, hourly pin-pricks
chained in between gated beds
waiting for Doctor signatures that switch
treatments toward a healthy discharge.no supplements are allowed from home
and an attempt is made to lock them up
If they should assert themselvespatients need to comply
nurses need to be patient
together they have to give and take;
give trust; take hopenegotiate!
