Waiting Room

(Just my thoughts on a recent hospital appointment I attended...)

Please... be... quiet
Have some consideration for those in your presence
For we are present NOT by choice
but because the receptionist clearly gestured towards the sign
secured just above your head clearly says:
This is the designated waiting area for patients
Which to me translates as:
This is the allocated space for those who share the privilege of having biological abnormalities coarsing through their veins

... So... even though this is a public space,
you must please still respect my private thinking space
Kindly refrain from adding
unnecessary additional noise to my
already burdened train of thought
These infuriating delays caused by late arrivals means that I
must further await the verdict of my biological state with baited breath...
