"Clinical Cleansing" SSPC 88
source
We sink within the graves
Of our follies
Our giant strides
A tale of folks
Mixed with meandering strands
Mean and feeble
Defiling heroic steps
Now we squabble
Jerking
With lean veins
Like demonic patients
Woes protracted
Demanding
Clinical cleansing

I like the depth of this poem. It captures the closeness to death that people often experience.
