A Little-Known Poet Dies
A new intern,
nervy, eager.
Old guy in bed -
terminal ticket to wherever.
He opens his eyes,
points a trembling finger
to something or other,
then speaks.
"Google me."
The young Doctor
only watches TikTok
for the cat videos...
This facile observation,
is not a metaphor
for anything at all.
