she wears orthopedic shoes
but she's not old, her hair hangs lank
over her small shoulders and her
teeth are crooked.
so is her smile.
so is mine, and I liked her,
she was so refreshingly direct
as she commanded me to get a mammogram,
or no more pink pills that roll off the
countertop, and bounce along the floor.
Yes, ma'am, to a young doctor who
will no doubt check on me
to make sure I do what I said,
or else.
