One month ago, on a rain-slicked street
My mother and I got a bite to eat
But on the way back, I slipped and fell
And I suppose the car coming didn’t see me well
Because the next thing I knew, as I lifted my head
I was staring at the sheets of a hospital bed!
I could not move my legs, nor my right arm
My left was okay (it escaped from harm)
My mother came in, with a frown, and then
Said “honey, I’m afraid you’ll never walk again.”
A feeling came over me, not sadness or hate
But instead overwhelming apathy took place
“Oh well,” I thought, “I guess I’m done.
My life is over before it’s even begun!”
But the next day my mom approached me with a smile
And said that, with luck, I’d only stay here a while
And then, if feeling returned to my legs
I could come back with her and start my life again
Well, that filed me with hope; an optimism quite bright
And perhaps my stay here would even be alright!
The month passed by, rather pleasantly
I’ll save you the details on how I went pee.
Most of my actions needed the assistance of a nurse
But really I was just glad to not be in a hearse
A reporter came to my room to tell my story
I think he was expecting something a little more gory
The triplegia of a fourteen year-old kid
Was something that, sadly, couldn’t be hid.
My nurse was kindly, pretty and gentle
She helped me get through that month without going mental
She even gave me a book to read
About shipwrecked sailors whose captain couldn’t lead
I learned on that day that human tasted like pork
The captain got eaten (but he was kind of a jerk.)
The nurse was very good at helping me cope with my condition
But when she was gone I sometimes felt a suspicion
Something like I was being watched
But I shooed that thought from my mind and instead stared at the clock
One thing that bothered me was the sheet on my legs
They hooked tubes up to me so that I never left the bed
But I could not reach down for the sheet to be pulled
So I could not see my legs, my once-useful tools
At the end of this month, I’m supposed to go home
But more often than not I’m simply left alone
The female nurse does not come any moreInstead, a crueler face comes through the door
His face is all pudgy, he wears an apron
