911, what is your emergency?


No one really knows what to do
When there are seven paramedics going up and down your stairs
You just sort of stand there
And try to look ok
As they carry him out to a stretcher
That he should've been able to walk to
That he shouldn't have needed at all
You just stand there
And awkwardly try to stay out of the way
Try to melt into the floor
Try and slip into a shadow
And stay there
