Existential Despair in the Ohp…Opht…Eye Doctor’s Waiting Room
Orderly rows of padded chairs among
Funeral home décor, fluorescent lights
HGTV eternally on TV
A really big and wide hi-def TV
On which attractive thirty-somethings yip
As they enter rooms: “OMYGOD! OMYGOD!”
What would they say if they encountered God –
OMYATTRACTIVELYFURNISHEDROOM!
OMYATTRACTIVELYFURNISHEDROOM!
And how many people with eye problems
Drive themselves to the ophthalmologist?
And did I spell “ophthalmologist” right?
