Coronaries and Cabbage
coronary vessels feed our hearts
blood pumped bright red circulate from
our delicate hearts nourishing the tiny cells
blood flows like a river undisturbed branching
like a monstrous tree rebranching into twigs leading
to leaves and life is a beautiful flow of love
when your heart breaks you are despondent
cry and re cry drink and vomit time heals you hardly die
a clot of blood tiny thrown in the vessels
your flow is lost you could die instantly or live
another life your destiny they call it coronary
they might lyse the ache in your heart lytics
wire and balloon your collapsing vessels in the lab
or even bypass or detour your damaged vessels
needlessly a lot of times and call it cabbage
