Visiting Hours Are Now Over
Excerpt
Most often
afraid of discoverers,
a strangler
steals into rooms.
Sometimes,
she strides into wards brazenly,
a distant bitchy relative
from the City,
accustomed to taking freely.
Othertimes,
he walks in welcomed,
the Good Joe,
there to end a conversation
well-ended.
Afterwards,
the nature of the visitor
rests in the visage
of the stilled patient.
Nevertheless,
the living are left alone.
