Iowa City (first poem in the Cities series)


Iowa City


The words would open like blinds

and seeing out with our internal vision

too much where there to be lost

all the days in step toward this passing

or failing or sliding by on one last dream

love quickens the pace until breaking

into dance the hospital grows and grows

right along with you all was said on fate

merely on the face sunburned and sad

words hanging from lips like smokes

closed my bank debit card

 will go into the bank for cash, and I just ordered checks, the ones with carbon paper underneath each  and I'm not getting a pre-paid card for stores.  just cash. Won't be buying Anything online.  wanted to do more in person anyway. $39.55 and $39.99 fraudulent charges showing up on online banking I'll have to absorb these. I think I'm safe.

I'm just hearing how great Women's Health Services are in Clinton, Iowa.

 Did not do proper care for me while pregnant, didn't find out I was carrying two babies til a doctor came from Iowa City, two weeks before delivery. Went back recently to get a pap, and the doctor there couldn't get it, took up to 4 speculums. I told them everything, I'm going thru menopause, no offer of estrogen, or any kind of pill, told her I'm having pain from fibroid cysts in my uterus.  Nothing, ignored. This place should be shut down!!
