TWO WHOLE WEEKS AHEAD
WITH NO DOCTORS
AND I HAVEN’T BEEN SICK ALL YEAR
BE STILL MY HEART
I CAN’T STAND THE EXUBERANCE
HOW WILL THE MEDICAL PROFESSION
EXIST WITHOUT ME
TWO WHOLE WEEKS
FREE FROM BLOOD TAKING
CHEMICAL INFUSION
LUNG AND HEART CHECKING
TOE NAIL CLIPPING
AND FEET EXAM
BEING FOLDED
MUTILATED AND SPINDLED
AND URINE BEING EVALUATED
AS IF IT WERE A FINE WINE
I FEEL SO HAPPY
I COULD DIE
WHAT A WONDERFUL THING IS MAN
WHAT A WONDERFUL CREATION OF GOD
WOUNDED HE STILL SURVIVES
I AM ACQUAINTED WITH DAMAGED PEOPLE
I’M ONE OF THEM MYSELF
PERHAPS WE ALL ARE IN SOME WAY DAMAGED
AND CHRIST IS THE WOUNDED PHYSICIAN
COME TO HEAL US
TO LEAD US THROUGH THE JOYS
AND PAINS OF EXISTENCE
AND TAKE US HOME WHEN IT’S OVER
AND HIS WORD TO US THROUGH ALL OF THIS
IS
PEACE
BE STILL
AND KNOW
THAT I AM
GOD
FRANK A VOLLMER
