Best Hospitals Poems

Hospitals are designed
(a) to make you appreciate your bed at home
(b) to prompt many unanswerable questions 
(c) to facilitate smooth patient care

(a) you become catatonic after having no sleep for...

The EKG-ECG beeped as she "breathed" heavily
with the oxygen mask across her face
