Time Bomb by Chris Sorrenti
Add two kinds of antibiotics
(no Penicillin please)
to the mix
on top of everything else
The young doctor is fast and friendly
with the medication
as long as narcotics
aren’t included in the equation
Fears of a repeat performance
seven years ago
hospitalized for four days
Diverticulitis
On a liquid diet
and lots of antibiotics via IV
the only good part about the stay
was the Morphine
The intake of meds schedule
is revised to accommodate
the new arrivals
both shy of UV rays
Most importantly
to keep track
should they be mixed with food
or only plenty of water?
