Another Day

Two enter the room with the man and only one leaves
It is a mother and child
They enter and the man asks the mother weather she is ready
She nods and turns her head from the light of her child.
She has forsaken him eternally,
and the heavens weep at the abandonment.
So he begins with the metallic weapons of death
Slow first as the child first knows real pain then quickly.
The child prays with all its body that its mother will intervene but she does not.
Then in the breath of life its soul screams out and the sound echoes across the land that God has made.
All the hosts of heaven bow there heads in respect for the innocent who has died this day.
And hordes of hell scream and writhe in ecstasy at the climax of the pain.
The man leaves, just another day at work for him who calls himself a doctor.
