Nurse Nancy Poem by Lexy Sogl

Nurse Nancy

Rating: 3.0


Every Thursday afternoon
Spent
Digging graves
As ghosts kneel
At her gruesome feet

There to scrutinize
deep piercings of soil
throwing away
grubby memories in dirt
making space

for the new ones

The weekly cycle
leaves her feeble
as an ill-treated kitten

Correlation, with
The mirrored dead
In her mind
She’s already there
