Nervous, heart pumping
Appointment soon
Thoughts colliding
Impending doom
.
In the car
Radio loud
Having doubts
Wondering how
.
Receptionist scolding
Wrong room
Sorry miss
Face of doom
.
Hour waiting
To see the doc
Scrolling videos
On tiktok
.
Finally the moment
Take a breath
Approach the room
What will be next?
I really like this poem, Phil. It also reminds me of going to the doctor for an appointment. I loved the verse that says, “Receptionist scolding, Wrong room, Sorry miss, Face of doom.” Over here, some people refer to receptionists as dragons (very unkind, of course, and not usually true). As it happens, the receptionists at my doctor’s surgery are very friendly and extremely helpful. My doctor is very understanding and lovely, too.

All 100 percent true, what happened yesterday. I wanted to call her a bitch but I felt it was a bit harsh, even if I felt it. I’m trying to write each day if I can
