oxygen bars

“two tweets” twitter-length poem 5/5/12

Three different times today
I saw a woman pushing a shopping cart
containing a portable oxygen tank
connected to tubes
up along her nose.
I don’t know what they did to get this,
but I thought:
people pay money at oxygen bars,
and these women probably get discounts
from their health care providers
to get that oxygen high
all the time in this world.
