          watching the monitors

Life Want To See U, Without Icu
I can’t believe, I am in ICU

Now that I am, Life want to see U
From ICU, THROUGH ICU... ... ...

Retrospecting.... .... ...
Using morality and spirituality as a cornerstone
Devotedly set off to build mansion of success
Laid Foundation solid, walls incomplete for right stones

Fear of losing or...

Icu Baby
Seconds, minutes, days, weeks, years
Now I just cry happy tears
Since the day that I found out
What miracles are all about
A helpless baby small and frail
Tiny lungs not being able
To help breath life into
A preemie who's precious and new
Always staying by your side
Watching tubes keep you...

Premium Member Acrimonious Acronyms - No Place For Me In Icu
I'm at my office at the AMA
I have a seizure, but I’m not DOA

So I get transported to the local ER
Who call my ex wife, she works in PR

Before I get treatment by a young MD
They want insurance and proof of my ID

But my evil...

Powerful Prayer In (Icu)
Waking up from being in a comma
In the hospital psych ward
I looked around to try and get my bearings
But I still couldn’t grasp where I was
As I slowly opened my red swollen eyes
To see exactly what I could see
I looked into the eyes of my...

Number six.

"Good morning, my name is David Brown. I'm a humanist chaplain volunteer.
I like to do the rounds and have a natter."

"That's interesting, David. Do sit down. So what motivates you here? 
How do you speak to spiritual matters?"

Icu - Not An Emergency
I see you

Little goblin girl 
Your head popped above the row
Of bushes but of discord too, we grow

Blue and green were shades of the same color
Blew past and ahead of me were you allowing me
To see where you once and again will be, free to...

Premium Member Icu I See You
You are lonely...You read this
A human being hurting
I see you
So now you know 
Terminality ill resting here 
ICU
Means Intensive Care Unit 
I see you
ICU is an acronym, abbreviation slang word 
I see you
On respite care, help us Lord
Pains beyond what you can't stand
You're being housed...

Frigid waiting rooms
   people coming and going
      speaking with hushed voice -
          watching, waiting for good news
while death silently hovers

life has left this sterile white garden

bent as a willow, I keen above blossomless beds

grieving those roses that once grew here

Resurrection Shifted To Monitor
I died on surgeons table
Before surgeons knife sliced my chest 
Before anesthesia put me to rest 
I died in imagination as hopes die in fable 

Vivid thoughts ran amok
Which new abode I will go, if I die 
What new way I will live, if I...

Past, Present, Unknown
We had another lockdown,
Just a month that time,
Now on a tier system are you 1, 2 or 3?
Guidelines were the same as before ..... mostly,
Did people follow them? Or just ignore them?
Some rules twisted to suit.

Christmas is not far away,
We have been given 5 days...
