Waiting for the Doctor (Ode) by GAC
Waiting for the doctor
Is enough to try your patience
As you sit and watch the clock, your
Getting older--yes, you're age-ins.
You check the sharps container,
And you take your own blood pressure.
As for nerves, it is a strainer
And it seems there is no measure.
Counting all the gauzes
And the cotton balls goes quickly,
And inflating rubber gloveses
Kind of makes you feel so sickly.
The ceiling tiles are counted
And the spots upon the floor.
Could it be the place is haunted?
There are sounds outside the door.
When the doctor sees you,
You can sure tell her for certains
That the waiting rates a PU
And you'd like to call it curtains.

the "age-ins" doesn't seem to go with the rest of the poem's presentation.
