[1867 - Cinco de Mayo]
Signs of Health
Hospital signs are fraught with meaning.
Not all are benign (or even appealing).
For instance, What does "Discharge Pharmacy" mean?
Is it meds for the home bound, or something obscene?
Is Nuclear Medicine a place you would choose to venture?
Or perhaps too radioactive sans lead clothing to enter.
Who would brave the Third Floor of one medical facility?
Where reside Neurosurgery, Infusion Stations, and Oncology.
Of this simple fact you can be quite certain.
In traversing the ER, look not behind a curtain.
The Hospital with the sick and dying abounds.
And only doctors get paid to make the rounds.
