Well known to most in Medicine <br />is, that infarcts can do you in. <br />They stipulate that arteries <br />are to this human plague the keys. <br />Cholesterol will stop the flow <br />by making plaque from head to toe <br />but mostly in the coronaries <br />of Thelmas, Adrians and Harrys. <br />No blood gets past the barricade <br />you are in trouble, I'm afraid. <br />When muscle gets no oxygen <br />it screams at firsts, then packs it in. <br />Or so the theory in use.... <br /> <br />Well, listen, I've got different views. <br />The plug that is the cause of it <br />is nothing good, which I admit, <br />it's truly pathological <br />a foreign presence if you will. <br />But, mark my words and see me frown <br />they've got the meatpie upside down. <br />And I propose the heart that fails <br />has in itself gone off the rails. <br />And that the only consequence <br />is debris, which makes lots of sense. <br />To craft a bypass, place a stent <br />may pay the surgeon's townhouse rent. <br />But since it doesn't treat the cause <br />(I hear your boo's and eeeh's and ahh's) , <br />the patient's life is still the same <br />but, as a player in this game <br />he's been convinced there was a need.... <br /> <br />Perhaps, I've sown a little seed.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/upside-down-2/
