Little Veins
My blood’s stuck

Cozy
The hospital
Frenzy
My hands
Blood from my heart
Not ready to be out
***
Little veins
Dense blood
Adult arms
Microscopic veins
No time for emergency
* **
Tapping slow
Tapping fast
Veins were still invisible
***
Puncture on one place
Puncture on another
Veins were snakes under stones
* **
Stressing out
Freezing
Time for the butterfly
Needle in my arm
* **
Not a drop of blood out
The vein is still under the rock
Right arm is left well-pricked
A chance to the left
* **
The little needle entered my skin
And was pivoted 360º
A little vein was found
My heart then pounded
Thousands of miles per second
