"Write about dealing with time."


Never a clock
in a doctor's
waiting room.  
I play 'guess
what time it is?'
Pull out my phone
to check.  Oh, it has
only been ten minutes.
I estimate another
fifty until they deign
to call my name.  Wall
of magazines presents
founts of medical
information.  I came
prepared.  Open my
book.  Now I begin
counting chapters.
Every stop to think
how many hours
in your life are spent 
in waiting rooms?
