----------------------------------- So, I wake up in a hospital, the white and clean smell is all around me. I hear the beeping down the invisible hallway, and the plastic bag hanging beside me making weird motor noises. I feel sweaty. I hear a cart pushed by my door, like a memory. I remember now when I was a kid and swinging on the swings at the city park. The rubber seats suspended by rusty chains that pinched my hands. I felt confused. I figure there is a button here that calls the nurses. Probably right behind my head. Turning my head, I get dizzy ------------------------
----------------------- And I woke up later. I feel so tired. It's hard to think about anything for too long. So there comes the nurse. "Good Morning, Mr.." she says, checking the clipboard at the foot of the bed. "Mr. James. How do you feel?"
"I'm weak." I try to look around, but the sun shining through the blinds in the window hurts my eyes. I hear her opening plastic bag and dropping the clipboard back to the bed. Clack.. And I see her come around, with a needle and a little bottle with a foil cap.
"So, Luke, are you related to Robert James?"
I had trouble thinking up my family tree. "I don't know. I don't think so."
"Well," she says, stabbing the needle into bottle drawing tap tap. "He was a," and she shove the needle and injection into my arm. "boyfriend of mine, when I was in high school. Do you feel good enough to see a visitor?"
"Yeah, I guess."
"Well, she'll be in here in a couple of days."
And I waited, watching the walls, keep passing out, and waking up in the same white sanitary room.
