Bustling activity, Frenzied brief energy, Noisy beepers beeping, Doctors, nurses, calling, How are you? How did your weekend go? Echoes of friends and beaus. Friendly voices chatter, plans for weekend matters. How are you? Calm Code Reds cut the air, urgent, requesting care. Elevators dinging, Loved ones heard exclaiming, How are you? Not given privacy, Stripped of their dignity. Phantom guests, masks they wear, nurses ask, no one cares, How are you?

The Hospital
Bustling activity, Frenzied brief energy, Noisy beepers beeping, Doctors, nurses, calling, How are you? How did your weekend go? Echoes of friends and beaus. Friendly voices chatter, plans for weekend matters. How are you? Calm Code Reds cut the air, urgent, requesting care. Elevators dinging, Loved ones heard exclaiming, How are you? Not given privacy, Stripped of their dignity. Phantom guests, masks they wear, nurses ask, no one cares, How are you?
