A/n: Hey, y'all! Long time no see. Forgot that I had this piece lying around so I typed it up and decided to send it into the world. Just a little poem outlining the day with our favorite medical officer :) No big stories planned yet, I'm still working on this one Ninja Turtles fic, and I have all but the beginning. Which is kinda important. Yeah.

Anyways, enjoy!


Get up, Get to Shift

Get up, get to shift

Time to start the day.

Eat breakfast with the captain,

Then hurry to Sickbay.

...

Get up, get to shift

An accident with flowers

Blasted Sulu and Gertrude

Surgery's twelve hours

...

Get up, get to shift

Time to treat the sick.

A Vulcan nearly lost his mind

To some voodoo mind trick.

...

Get up, get to shift

Hurry to Sickbay

A battle with some Klingons

Has gotten underway.

...

Get up, get to shift

The captain's back in here

Even bleeding on the table,

He's still a pain in the rear.

...

Get up, get to shift

New medical experiments

Working with the hobgoblin;

Hope it won't be permanent.

...

Get up, get to shift

Drag Chekov back inside

Running away in his condition?

It's time to tan his hide.

...

Get up, get to shift

Paperwork abounds

Thank Chapel and M'Benga

For keeping Sickbay sound.

...

Get up, get to shift

Uhura, bless her heart,

Has transformed scolding captains

Into such an art.

...

Get up, get to shift

Wield the mighty hypo

Cure cramps, poison, and headaches

And knock out some psycho.

...

Get up, get to shift

Explosion near the engines

The stubborn Scot still insists

He doesn't need attention.

...

Get up, get to shift

Someone else is dying.

If only you knew more…

But at least you know you're trying.

...

Get up, get to shift

Remember why you're here.

Spy the picture of your daughter,

Whisper "I love you dear."

...

Get up, get off shift

You feel sore, tired, and dead.

Have a drink with Jim, chat with Spock,

And now it's off to bed.
