A scalpel, the operating room
The fluorescent stars overhead
The patient, a doll

Slice methodically
Maintain sterile conditions
And she will evade sepsis.

Somehow, it seems
My operating room abstains
From the same set of rules

Under this moon, 
Organs dissected, excised
Yet she rots from the inside
Stitches and all

at times, you will find
that your gutters can become clogged
with leaves
and other debris
that can cause buildup
of moldy rainwater
and other scum.

in this situation, one has two options.

1. hire someone to help you
resolve the blockage
and allow the rain
to flow again

or more simply

2. beat upon the gutters
with the blunt end
of a broom
and hope the rubble
will dislodge itself

while one is more
effective
the other
seems more efficient
to the sufferer.
