Iatrophobia

(Poem by Serenus)

 

My body is stiff

As a tear rolls down my cheek

I’m screaming on the inside

But It’s impossible to speak

 

I hear a casual conversation

About school and kids…

I feel foreign hands

Invade my body

As they probe and dig

 

I hear the horrific sound of a saw

As my blood paints the walls

The center of my chest

Feels like it’s being ripped to shreds

With a million metal claws

I pray for an end to the pain

"JUST STOP!...

...PLEASE PAUSE!!!"

…But no one in this torture chamber

Answers my calls

 

My heart

Gripped and clipped

By the hands

Of an emotionless

Masked man

My agony he doesn’t notice

He’s focused on his tortuous plan

 

I’m open to the world

My ribs are exposed

My bloody 

Severed heart

Still beating

I wish my eyes could close

 

I wish they could hear

My silent screams!!

I wish the doctor could see!!

I FEEL!

HEAR!!

And SEE!!!

EVERYTHING!!!!

How Could This Be?!

Very horrifying...more so than any monster. This does happen in real life. It makes me shiver!

[Baby Ricochet]

Sounds like a Coronary Artery bypass graft or CABG for short. Medical speak is heavy on the acronyms. If it's any consolation they do have a very high success rate. It's OK man I know you didn't get one.

[Sirius King]

yea its some kind of heart surgery, i've never had one,... but i thought it would be terrible to have one and the anesthesia didn't kick in lol

sum scary s**t lol

[Baby Ricochet]

It's very rare but that does happen and just like your poem describes the patient can't move or speak but are actually concsious

[Sirius King]

yea i think i saw a news report on it, its crazy

[David the writer]
