How Many Minutes Do I Have Left

How much time do I have left, doctor? Nineteen minutes and twenty-two seconds. What to do first. Who to call? What to say? What not to say. Stressed out I reach for my pen. When I look up again I have seven minutes left. I have written five words. I am going to die. I wander into my bedroom. Throw myself in on the bed. Close my eyes tightly. Ten or eleven times Stress keeps me awake I stare at the red eye on the clock Watch my life tick away slowly. Six minutes. Five minutes. Two minutes. There are now twenty-one seconds left I scream believing a doctor who knew nothing….
