DRIP (Lucy Letby)

When the patient was brought in

Possessed by an infection creeping

She strung him up to an IV line

She stirred the solutions in white vials

The Angel-Mother in her white dress.


A touch of insulin and a dash of air

Mixed with opiates and hallucinogens

A syringe of Shipman’s Mix

The nurse stares dispassionately

As she connects the drip.
