No-one likes hospitals

There is a solemnity to the people you see in hospitals.

You see someone and don’t know why they are there,

Those people you see in hospitals.

Boredom seeps from the yawning mouths of

The people you see in hospitals.

Loss and blame writhes through the hallways,

While questions are answered and unanswered again

For the people you see in hospitals.

Pain and worry is shone like a light in their eyes,

Contagious fear rips through the healthy and patient .

Sorrow rises like smoke from the building, a beacon to all,

Reminding us how much we all hate, being

The people you see in hospitals.
