a failure to communicate

smart as whip,
the doctor was
first in his class in
taking
blood and installing stents,
and yet.
communication,
verbal communication
seems to be a problem.
his writing as well,
chicken claw
strokes
of ink, calligraphy
from hell.
there is no
bed side manner, no in the chair
manner,
no follow up
call, or explanation as to why
you're still bleeding
and feel numb.
but he has a lot of diplomas
on his wall.
