doctor evil

i'm afraid of my doctor.
every time
i go for a visit
i'm more injured and sick
than when
i arrived.
he has
a maniacal beside manner,
never
quite looking
you in the eye.
shuffling his feet,
as he dispenses pills
like chicklets
at Halloween.
i try to keep my distance
when he
comes into the room,
as my blood pressure
skyrockets
and my eyes bulge
with fear
and gloom.
