The excavation for the new
clinic of Bellevue Hospital
was littered with knocked bricks,
corrupt plaster, and old ward-
flowers thrown to the blasting-dust.
A cat grinned with the effort
as it chewed a piece of meat
fastened to a Kraft-paper bag
while some man slept off something.
Hell, may the clinic rise to cure
all ills its site is host to,
and not mis-treat the desperate.
