You drive 500 miles – 500 miles 500 miles 500 miles …
And it is a Far Off Place
this place they call Cure
where the main streets are named Treatment and Therapy
and a wild wind rushes through
They call the wind The Unknown
– kin to The Unlikely
the side-effect of thinking you don’t know where you stand
It is a big hospital, of bricks and black windows closed
You recognise Another Universe when you see it
You have driven 8 hours for visiting
You get lost before you arrive
At the desk a man in a uniform marked Security points to a corridor
marked No Admittance. He unlocks the distant door with a secret
key that he turns under his desk, where you cannot see
You go Down –
Down the No Admittance Corridor
Through the Distant Door.
