my favorite, from an intern working the ED:
ghetto woman comes in with complaint of "fireballs in her eucharist"
(fibroids in her uterus)
and the white ghetto people who say their arm is 'all swolled up'
then the gems that would come into the clinic and say only this: "Why does my arm hurt?" no other exposition; no expansion; just 'why does this particular body part hurt?'

"Shall I give you a kiss?" Peter asked and, jerking an acorn button off his coat, solemnly presented it to her.
