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?
