Cardiac Distress

my cardio-myopathy has now become deformed
they say its hyper-trophic and obstructive to my flow
there's danger in its nature, so say the minds of those
who run my life 
and need my strife 
to buy their kids some clothes

Why thank you robert johnson. I was starting to think that no one ever says anything constructive around here. What is the proper beat count for a limerick?
