Sleeping around the hospital without being sick. Sunrise, sunset, air conditioner hum. Fluorescent everything. The smell of alcohol rub. Rhythm City on the TV. What day is it today?
Cockroach dies at JHB Gem
Von Dutch McCrunchbottom was 285 years old when he finally keeled over next to a medical waste bin on the 9th floor of the JHB Gem hospital this afternoon. McCrunchbottom had survived 3 nuclear holocausts, 3 state liver transplants and at least one Miley Cyrus album before he ended his own life by throwing himself in front of a pair of All-Stars. A suicide note read “Dear World, the stench of this hospital is unbearable and I feel as though the grime which pulses through the linoleum is beginning to affect my temperament. “ McCrunchbottom spent his last few decades living under the diathermy machine in the Gynae operating theatre which he said was “clean, dry and safe (save for the rats).”
His crunching, scratching and inability to be killed when stomped on, will sorely be missed.
