Just a couple of people….

As she watches a spider weave a web  in a crevasse on the ceiling so tall 

And neither of them are aware of each other at all

Sitting back to back either side of that wall in the hall

But in the silence of that ticking, tock clock, they both hear a key turn with a click in the door and they listen to a knock

Each are sitting alone Idling away the seconds and minutes, just fiddling with their familiar photographs on their mobile phone

And when the big wooden door opens then each can see one another, there is a glance with a smile from one to the tuther

Now curiosity comes across the pair, coz they wonder why on earth each other is sitting there..

But the big wooden door in that very same hall, where those two strangers sit with their backs against the wall

Is closed with a clatter and a bang, as the last visitor went away from his hospital appointment at four thirty nine p.m. on this wet Wednesday

So still there are a couple of people waiting patiently either side of that wall in the hospital hall, when one is a woman and the other is a man yet they do not know one another at all.. 

They are just two different people who are aware that on each side of that corridor two strangers sit there
