Gall Bladder
When you bile potaters
don’t let ’em run over onto the stove.
There was something very vexing
about his attitude.
By this time I was feeling gloomy;
the events of the day had stirred my bile:
no sleep all night
pain in the back
emergency ambulance
now this ultrasonic joker.
One week and twenty one drips
of antibiotics later:
you can go home now,
it sometimes happens after cardiac surgery.
How galling.
Like the grim humour of this, Keith. Especially the restrained ‘very vexing’!
