Wrote a play about
healthcare,
Poking fun at pretension.
And in the fourth
presentation
he collapsed.
Should be time for his
welfare,
Doctors pissed by pretension,
And in their wrath,
hesitation
he then lapsed.
Proved him right with his
cold stare
Doctors displayed pretension,
And in his death's
disillusion
--we all gasped.
Poet's note: Pretension in healthcare is the performance of authority, certainty, or compassion that is not fully earned or justified by actual knowledge, outcomes, or care.
