Last Chance

“Stop!”
Anne ran down the hospital hallway to the bed that was being wheeled out of a small corridor room towards the Surgery Room.
A nurse looked to the other doctors around the bed. She paused, holding the syringe which would anesthetise the patient. Anne's pace screeched to a stop as she reached them, knowing she looked quite distressed and out of breath.
“Please stop,” Anne’s dark eyes were flashing as they turned to her. She looked down at the still body beneath the sheets and her eyes moved to the blindfold on his eyes.

How small I am

A boy with my toys
The land, sea and sky are mine
Because my eyes see

Reach out and claim it
It is drawing into me
It’s all mine now stop

How small it makes me
When I look up to the sky
Am I nothing then?

Engulfed by the world
Life becomes nothing but grass
We grow, live and die

Grass, rock, sea, sky, cloud
A, B, C, 1, 2 and 3
Me, barely human
