the doctor will see you now

by Nanette Bellman

this is going to be
a blind date from hell
because my idea
of a good first impression
certainly doesn't involve me,
spread eagle, on display,
getting violated,
six ways from Sunday,
all at my own expense.
 
that's right,
i'm the one paying for this.
 
i can already hear
the small talk, chit chat, bullshit,
ringing in my ears...
 
"so, uh, what brings you here today?"
 
i say,
"let's make a deal...
i'll tell you what's wrong
when you tel me what's right."
