lay back in the chair
with the picc line connected
first the hydration
then the anti-nausea med
after that the preparation
for the following week’s hospital stay
*
the above interrupted partway through
for prepared lunch:
sandwich chips peaches in syrup plus cookie
>
see the other patients in the room
the one next to me wants to live
his regular life in spite of the fatigue
hoping he’ll have extra years
from his time in the chair
connected to bags of liquid
which empty in thirty minutes
