. because the mass was radiopaque and the cells grinned under the microscope and the doctor made that elevator face while the nurses fluttered with literature little pamphlets magic papers websites with the tuesday beyond the window brash, like a new-changed Swallowtail on the tongue of summer . |

quote: What incredible imagery in this conclusion. Your poem is packed with emotion, dear Amaryllis. Aruba seems a good place to take the distance from the "elevator face" of the doctor and from his point of view and to allow the healing energy to flow freely. Love, Margherita |

Yes. Indeed. Sail away to Aruba, a good place to drown your troubles and find new dreams. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I think we all fear the "elevator face" and wanting to run and escape ..I really liked this it was short but even with few words you really portrayed an image and got your point across, i find writers who can do that so talented! I look forward to reading more of your writings. |

A I don't know who it is but I'm happy for them if this means they have been cured or there were no negative test results and I hope they have a wonderful vacation. Good news is always refreshing when it comes out of that element. If it's a last ditch thing then I still wish them the best!! Great thought evoking write!
