Hold onto the rail
Mind your feet
I'm here to take you
Over to imaging
Can my daughter come?
Not just now
She can wait here
Are you comfortable?
The orderly turns
Backing the wheelchair out
Corridors with busy people
All in designated uniforms
Swiftly moving now
Into the elevator turning around
With another elderly lady
Going down
Arm is sore where the cannula is
Pulling into the CT room
With waiting people
Sliding out the metal bed
Are you OK to move over?
And lie on there
Further down if you can
Keep still for a minute
IV contrast injection
Red laser crosses
Carefully aligned
Machine starts rumbling
Slid in and out
To find the unseen issue
