A Poem — “The Best Service”

 

The clinic is under

renovation.

 

Paint cans

in the waiting room,

tarp on the floor.

 

Sign says

“We are improving the facility to serve you better.”

 

In the magazine rack,

last year’s American Scientist;

a six-year-old Canadian Geographic;

and a thirteen-year-old

Guinness Book of World Records.
