No One Call the Doctor

No One Call the Doctor
Broke my spine
in several spots, liquid
within spread out in
every part. Insides
turned yellow.
Couldn’t move for days.

Attempted a fix with
a fistful of
bobby pins and
paperclips. Can’t stand up
straight anymore.

Move around
with the grace
of a marionette, guided by
a drunk and heavy hand.
Hope eyes really
aren’t windows.
