Mellifluous music <br />nicely furnished rooms <br />cool air gushes <br />make everybody blooms. <br /> <br />Digital thermo sets <br />One touch moving beds <br />Bright ophthalmoscopes <br />Top otoscopes. <br /> <br />Bright faces with paints all over <br />Yet empty brains with hard skulls <br />Clueless white clothes <br />Pendulous stethoscopes <br />Mighty medical reps, who <br />Teach 'world's best medicines' <br />Nobody reads notes <br />yet, counts Dollar notes. <br /> <br />Lost in medical supermarket <br />Practicing commercial medicine <br />I miss patients back home <br />And I lose my hands' acumen. <br /> <br />Giving what patients want <br />Obeying their derisory commands <br />I feel really exhausted <br />Here ….. <br />Patients are doctors <br />And sadly <br />Doctors are patients. <br /> <br />1ST November 2006<br /><br />Kolitha Lelwala<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/doctors-are-patients/
