methodical, clinical, quirky, almost a sharp shooter <br />only this time intruding, sedating, to my deep sleep <br />inducing, watching, calculating. <br /> <br />observing, systemic tyranical sentry by my side <br />my only bearer of mercy, sterile cap and gown <br />charting, balancing infusions of my dreamless slumber. <br /> <br />scoping, evaluating, scaling <br />my life's gradient in a stranger's hands <br />shielding my pain from the surgeon's pressured hand. <br /> <br />oh anaesthetist, where are you in my short dreamless world? <br /> <br />15/04/08 <br /> <br /> <br />Thanks to the anaesthetist who took care of me in my recent operation.<br /><br />Sylvi Sylva<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/anaesthetist/
