#appointments
*Spirited soul's bluest hood
covers your greeting smile;
We recognize our aspiring
wishes to gaze near the source
core, the centers of playful galaxies
arisen in one swift loving gesture
You said you're hitchhiking
toward my theater of dreams
I affirmed, smiling, as I stumbled
a bit; wanting to sit by your side
You, willing to recognize our
sweet holly humourous deeds
Even when the presence is murky
you shine green jades and gems
Flamboyant friend from along
Unexpected academic creatio
Having a premonitive chance
that next time we will coalesce
More than we ever expected. . .*

Tell Dr Blood it's Mrs Bloomsbury;
He always sees me right away;
He's such a wonderful doctor - so much
Better than that Doctor Day.
What the devil are you incinerating,
I consider your tone a right cheek,
I've not bothered you for ages; I've
Not phoned for at least … a week.
But this is an emergency;
Yes of course it's serious,
I'm sweating, shivering, sneezing
And feel quite delirious.
I'm running a terrible temperature,
I'm covered all over in spots,
My body aches from head to toe,
My muscles all tied up in knots.
My heart's got the palpitations,
Though I've still got a pulse - it's quite weak;
My poor throat's ever so red and sore,
It's increasingly hard ... to ... speak,
My eyes are all glazed and weepy,
My ears are infected and blocked,
I think there's a chill in my kidneys
And my joints have all stiffened and locked.
My stools - are alarmingly liquid,
My water's grey, misty and strong,
I'm suffering pins and needles, in fact ...
I don't think I've got very long.
He can see me on Thursday morning,
An appointment for half-past-ten,
But that’s no good at all to me ...
I'll be better again - by then!

Half asleep,
barely able
to feel
the coffee cup
in my hands,
I wander morning
searching for
a destination
my calendar
has not yet mapped.
