THE HOSPITAL

 

 

I

The hospital: An institution where
Physicians, nurses, students, and
Other multidiscipline staff learn and
Practice the art and science of medicine.

II

The hospital: A place of
Hell, pain and suffering
For patients living
With death warrants.

III

The hospital: An oasis of
Heaven-like healing for
Patients cured of diseases by
Medical science and technology and faith.

IV

The hospital: A society where
God is absent and present,
Through an endless sea
Of incarnate deaths and resurrections.
