The Kingdom Hospital
rests on ancient marshland
where the bleaching
ponds once lay.
Here the bleachers moistened
their great spans of cloth.
The steam evaporating
from the wet cloth
shrouded the place
in permanent fog.
Centuries later
the hospital was built here.
The bleachers gave way
to doctors and researchers,
the best brains in the nation
and the most perfect technology.
To crown their work they called
the hospital The Kingdom.
Now life was to be charted,
and ignorance and superstition
never to shake
the bastions of science again.
Perhaps their arrogance
became too pronounced,
and their persistent
denial of the spiritual.
For it is as if the cold
and damp have returned.
Tiny signs of fatigue are appearing
in the solid, modern edifice.
No living person knows it yet,
but the gateway to the Kingdom
is opening once again.
