[ NaPo 2019 ] Poetic Medic

 
WAIT!
 
Before operating on this sterile
body of work occupying
intensive care - defibrillate!
 
Conditoned critical, my poetry  
lying there under so many lamps
death near
 
Charging to 500 amps;
shouts  
CLEAR!  
 
Pulse returns
 
and it takes a breath
 
Rescuscitated, weak, restored
hereabouts to land of the living -
no longer terminally pathetic
destined for a morgue shelf
 
When it comes to honest critique
my dear Poetic Medic is kind
thoroughly giving of her healing self
