Laser surgery
How painless is the knife of light!
Triangulating out of sight
A target subcutaneous:
Destruction instantaneous.
Those truncated vanishing points
And intersecting lines and planes
Can render you introspective;
But viewed supine on a gurney,
They probably are not the best
Introduction to perspective.
Now I’m broken and can’t be fixed;
Tests were taken—results were mixed:
Keep teeth and eyes but lose the head,
Below the neck is not quite dead.
