CATASTROPHE
HAYA SUNIL 1999 (DOHA)
What if I was healthy?
The filthy hospital corridors
Would have not been
The sight to my eyes
The nasty smell of medicines
Would have not been
The fragrance to my nose
The horrific needles
Would have not been
Infused into me
The sharp blades
Would have not been
The knife to my body
The helpful doctors
Would have not been
My go to companions
