Poetry might be defined as the clear expression of mixed feelings.

Redacted from the Book of Proverbs (no. 11)
If you give a hungry man a fish,
he will eat for a day.
If you give a hungry man a gun,
he will likely aim it at you and say,
“take me to where you keep the fish.”

A Heads Up on the Screw Up

The Continuing Adventures of Detective Frank Green
In some cases
indeed, death does come
like a thief in the night,
wearing latex gloves
and a mask,
careful of what it touches.
I’m Detective Frank Green.
I used to work Vice.
Now I work Homicide.
I make my living
bringing killers and murderers to justice
then watching justice smack them silly
with a big old justice silly stick.
Homicides by nurses in a hospital setting
have tripled over the last 40 years.
Now, I don’t mean to scare you away from
receiving proper medical attention,
which may include admittance to a hospital bed
for an overnight stay
or a stay of a much longer duration.
Those are just the facts.
But it’s just one more reason to get yourself
or your loved ones
off the cancer sticks.
Because if you smoke,
you will eventually land in a hospital bed
and you will have an open IV crying out
“please fill me with potassium cyanide”
in a language understood by only sociopathic nurses
or nurse practitioners
or sociopaths pretending to be nurses
or nurse practitioners.
