The Cost of Punctuation.
How can any of us be sure?
What bowels would not be angered
by what cannot be explained.
There may be no red flags, but you’re
drowning In unpredictable pain.
.
Just remember, life is a terminal illness
and Medicine an inexact science;
an exercise in probability.
In shadow and with occult blood,
the assassin flatters to deceive
.
So what’s the worst? The surgeon,
Green in mask and gown,
punctuates your abdomen,
creates a semicolon, but don’t fret,
it’s not yet a full stop.
