Hoss Spital

Whilst the doctors discussed her fate
Her belly inflated with hate
Flat out on a gurney
For one final journey
From hospital food that she ate

This is a good one because of the surprise ending. In a way it is not funny because now I feel that a few people can decide who lives and who dies in the situation our country and other countries or the whole earth has found itself. Thank you for the visit to my page. Sara
