HOSPITAL


 

HOSPITAL

The building is abandoned

Fading memories are all that linger

My mother came here a long time ago

After she had her heart attack

What was once named Parkway Hospital

As it sits near the Grand Central Parkway

They gave her an aspirin

My mother died in another hospital

Three years ago

Put in hospice care

Her heart kept beating for a week

Without food or water
