Theme: Year of the Nurse
last breath . . .
a nurse turns mother
toward the light
empty womb . . .
a nightingale comforts me
through the night
pandemic
the beak she wears
on her mask
Note: during the 17th century plague, doctors wore a beak-like mask which was filled with lavender or other strongly scented substances, which acted somewhat like a respirator.
