UWorld 

Written By: Sarah Marion 

She felt like a UWorld question
Purple lips, livedo reticularis, lives on a farm with turtles, oral ulcers, found face-down I fell asleep working her differential  
That’s broad and scary  
This morning she said I must be new because she would have remembered my beautiful dress  
A medical mystery who only has capacity to complement  

Author Bio:

Sarah Marion is a PGY-3 at Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and loves using poetry to parse through the challenging parts of medicine.
