Life is cheap for some, but patients are expensive.
The calculus of care truly is offensive.
Algorithms set to keep us shy of dying.
Only if it’s fed…by consuming & buying.
Several things come standard in hospital rooms.
Needed only for accounting’s abacus looms.
It’s the worst food in town…& it never runs out.
Too bad that insurance is a patient’s sole clout.
Healthcare’s an abattoir for slowly bled money.
If not for that cold sweat, this would’ve been funny.
