Appointment Lady
Had to get some blood work
As my doctor did demand
So I walked up to the lab
With my appointment in my hand.
A few were there before me
As we checked in one by one.
They would text when they were ready;
I could wait out in the sun.
My cell phone beeped; I went inside
Where others sat in chairs.
“Appointment lady!” I was called,
Eliciting some stares.
I guess most folks were walk-ins;
My appointment really paid.
With some clicks on the computer,
They, too, might have made the grade.
