REPORTING LIMIT

 by shaun lawton

The servant arrived 

pedaling his bicycle.

He was not standing 

on the pedals.

He was not sitting on 

the velocipede seat.

In fact there was no 

bicycle, which was alarming.

It turns out he wasn't even 

an operator here

No Damage done. 

We are just making 

you aware.

There is someone working 

for you not employed by you
who does not arrive to work 

on a missing bicycle.

Infirmary ward transporter 

returned our patient to 

the wrong room
without having done so. 

Convalescent was found 

in his bed asleep
with the rail down 

and his cell phone 

unplugged from the wall.

This victim was not on oxygen 

yet and was wearing 

a nasal canula
No harm done. 

Hospice envoy failed 

to be polite and smelled 

faintly of Old Spice.

The courier rang our unit's buzzer 

without touching the buzzer button 

Staff alarmed and confused. 

He was also naked while being 

fully clothed. There were no wrinkles 

in his clean work shirt. He shouted 

at us without making a sound. 

He used inappropriate body 

language without moving. 

We noticed his shirt 

was tucked in too perfectly

No harm done.

Patient emissary did not arrive 

with subject because there was no
cause for a transport at the time. 

We checked the sufferer's room
and confirmed they were not there. 

The bed was empty and the side rail 

was down. We called X-ray and the case 

was still getting their exam. 

The carrier was actually sitting down 

doing nothing during the exam. 

No harm done and the courier 

returned patient to their room 

after the exam was over.
