Nursing School Dropout
The young woman peered into the room
She saw a large legless blind man
Uncovered and naked on the bed
The nurse nudged the woman forward
And warned her not to dawdle
The nurse declared that the man needed a sponge bath
Had the disease of diabetes
Had not taken care of himself
So we have to – take care of him, that is
After a final push, the nurse cautioned the woman
Dear, be careful around his thingy
I do not need this man getting excited
