Can’t find a pulse the young doc said. <br />I think that means that you are dead. <br />This goes against all common sense. <br />I blame his inexperience <br /> <br />I had to strongly remonstrate, <br /> which he did not appreciate. <br /> You have no pulse you must be dead. <br />That’s what my old professor said. <br /> <br /> A nursing sister standing by <br />just shook her head and heaved a sigh. <br />I sent the young fool on his way. <br /> That’s why I am still here today. <br /> <br />I had no pulse in my false arm <br />I saw no reason for alarm. <br /> I know that in my other wrist <br /> I have a pulse that can’t be missed. <br /> <br />3-Jan-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/junior-houseman-for-friend-thad/
