Ugly doctor’s office ceiling tiles spin while I rest. A regular visit yielded an unexpected bonus. “Surprise! You are allergic to Pneumovax!”

Growling and grumbling
Disturbing the peace
Loud and obnoxious a/c
It’s the sacrifice to beat the heat

Trees sway
The end of day
Light is spent
Night calls
Darkness falls
The curtain closes
Supposing you were alone
The sudden audience you feel
The day somehow concealed
Comes as a surprise

The woman crying for death
dreams of life after the ache.
“Diamonds are but ugly rocks,” she says, bitterly.
