The Hospital

Hurry up and wait.
The doctor will come
between 1:30 and 2:00.
At 5:00 you learn, No,
it will be tomorrow morning.
She finally comes at 8
to tell you that you're looking better
(which you already know)
and maybe you can leave today,
but it's not up to her
it's up to the other doctor
who told you that same thing yesterday.
I wish they would coordinate
who's in charge.
Why must I wait?
