My friends suggested the words Dysdiadochokinesia, anticipation, gratitude, arachnophobia, reality, solidarity, paraphernalia for my next poem. Here it is:
Doctor's yard
Waiting rooms,
White walls,
Doctor's yard
Waiting rooms,
White walls,
White
coats,
Whiter
faces.
Anticipation,
Trepidation,
Palpitation,
Perspiration.
A
mind, full of fear:
Arachnophobia,
Another's
malfunction:
Dysdiadochokinesia.
Syringes,
tubes,
Paraphernalia.
The
smell of spirit,
Liquid
and human.
Reality
Gravity
Solidarity
Magnanimity.
A
doctor's form,
Words
of comfort,
A
patient's gratitude,
A
mind quietens.
