Oil Change

by Greg Schwartz

His blood is diseased
they tell him
poison running through his veins
but they can flush it out
purge him
give him a fresh start

pump him full of new blood
a cocktail collected from the dead
drawn from cold bodies
no longer needing it

new blood
to give him new life
they tell him
and by the way
never mind
the nightmares.
