the good doctor

I talk to my doctor
on the phone, she has a pleasant voice.
she's busy.

very busy. her life is stacked with notes
upon her desk.
patients at the door,
on the other line.

I envy her.
the work she does. the healing.
the importance
of her day.

she was born to be what she is.
a life not wasted.
not a minute or hour,
not a careless thought,
thrown away.
