Poem #15
Title: vaccination records
Spoiler! :
once you've captured, you're there forever
records held tightly beneath their manicured fingertips
your numbers are precious to them, you presence is necessary
they'll keep you healthy and if you fork enough money over the counter
only if you stay with them until the end of time
water falls behind their marble desks
with information collected to help others move on
but you can never leave
the door is too heavy, even if you've been gone for a while
they'll greet you with a smile, even if you don't smile back
"that'll be $150"
