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.
Written to Wicked Woman by Coven
