Dressings Changed

Olfactory: bleach stink metallurgicalontological hospital

Labs and lists of strange ologies

Elderly at life’s descent pack no suitcase for these holidays

All morning sat bored in a bleach-stinking hospital ward 

Gore blurs the lessons I fail to absorb

What red provokes, lips stranger’s skin becoming kin, mystery lovers 

To me recalls that forking wound that cleft the flank my brother.
