One drunk, two drunk, Three drunk, Four Five drunks, Six Drunks Oh my God! There's more? It's another night in the ER Full of the sick and injured How many are in the car? How did you say it occurred? It Monday night And the ER"S full Oh man what a site You were gored by a bull? Tuesday the fun begins It's come one, come all Only in the ER Are their stretchers in the hall? Wensday is next in line What more can I say Our toilets are divine I think that's why they stay Thursday is the turning point Welcome to my Hell This is a jumping joint Where'd he put that bell? Friday is the best of days Family Doctors are away One more trip for x-rays No, we don't require pay Saturday and Sunday Are the days you plan to rest? I'm so happy you're careful While in your Sunday best Shootings and Stabbings Keep walking in the door Yes, I know how sick you are Now please, get up off the floor Head wounds on drunks Vomiting on my shoes No we don't treat skunks Most don't play by the rules To here they come Both night and day What they truly want Well, I can not say A note for work A sympathetic ear Drugs for the pain Or maybe a seer We treat them one and all For it's the ER crew who gets the call Lord knows it's not the pay But those we help are why we stay. ------------------ Set you heart free and your mind will follow. |

I'll take a classroom full of kids defying me to teach them something, thank you - Nice job, Dragoness...  ------------------ Nay, if our wits run the Wild-Goose chase, I am done: For thou hast more of the Wild-Goose in one of thy wits, Than I am sure I have in my whole five. ~ ²1592 Wm.

Liked your poem... but you can keep your job! LOL (I think I'll quit complaining about mine for a while after reading this... a short while, mind you... but a while! LOL) |

Nice job. ER sounds quite demanding...I am glad I am not in that position. |
