Microstories: A Private Room Is Now Non-negotiable

I blearily glared at my morphine drip,

Prayed for a mute button.

Anything

to halt the noisy,

Nonstop

Nasally

Twang

Of the woman in next bed,

While

My useless headphones

Softly crooned that

Nobody told Lennon

About days like these

On repeat.
