A Problem With The Process

A series of emails with a friend inspired a poem. This doesn't happen often for me. It was the fact that a person filled with love could have a heart problem that was the starting point. Today most people with arrhythmia's will be okay, but there is an underlining possibility of it being something more serious.

It's quiet normal to be worried and a little scared when results come back showing there may be a problem. The unfortunate element of the story is when those close to that person disregard those feelings - especially when she'd been supportive to them in their time of need.

Sad, when people behave like that, common too. And the hurt they cause in behaving selfishly can be minor or serious, a bit like arrhythmia's...


What Is an Arrhythmia?

A problem with the process
electrical system out of control
you're beating too fast,
you're beating too slow.

It's problem with the process
You're rhythm is irregular
you're square peg in a
round hole.

It's nothing
it's common
They're harmless,
except
those
that
are
not.

What is an arrhythmia?

A metaphor
the love giving organ
beating too fast,
beating too slow.

Trying to give
round love
to square holes

And those who don't care
are nothing
are common
They're harmless,
except
those
that
are
not.
