Creatures gather in the courtyard at sundown
Armed with stethoscopes and pills

The infirm clad in a costume gown
Laid bare among the land without hills

Guided only by the melodies
Of the beast with the blinking eyes
And piercing tones

Healing begins
Written during my second stem cell transplant in June 2019. Doctors and nurses scrambled through the hallways. The IV machines beeping nonstop. But, that's where healing began.
