Plasma Pet Peeves

Donating plasma again

Left arm, blue ring

& today has been the slowest by far

It’s been 55 minutes

& I’ve just now sat down

Where I’ll probably wait another 30

Before I even get started

Then 45 if I’m lucky

& I bleed fast enough

To get out of here before 10

When my appointment was set for 8

Don’t have a schedule

If you’re not going to manage it

9:12

& I’m finally starting

Normally I’d be getting unplugged

Around this time, but whatever

Plus, they didn’t do a great job

With the needle & now

I’m bleeding a bit

But whatever

No one ever gives a shit
