Best Cardiac Poems


Cardiac Dysrhythmia

I am as sick as sinus syndrome
At times as lively as V-fib
Accelerated, polymorphic…
Another temporary blip

then Mobitz II attacks.. times slows
it creeps by like prolonged QT
complete heart block would likely follow..
screw that, I’m back to SVT

It never stops, it’s pretty hopeless
I’m  getting sicker day-by-day
No chance for cure, time to go
Time to succumb to PEA

Cardiac Arrest

Passion seiged my heart 
but systole couldn't even hide...
cardiac arrest

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


A Catalogue of Cardiac Confusion

Impossible to not remember
Preserve thoughts in precious amber
Promise that you feel it too
Do you feel it when I think of you?
A matter of proficiency
Tidal collision where oceans meet
Can't define real from spoof
Ignites already flaming truths
Mistook the flame you burnt for me
As a bonfire for my dignity
Erodes and weathers, faded grandeur
Just how much can a heart endure?

Premium Member Politics of Cardiac Arrest

Wealthy thrivers off polarizing put-down strategies
calcify toxic win/lose Capitalization patterns
building up around bicameral governing hearts
of our health-wealth struggling
ebb and flow financial system.

Investment of time and money,
nutrition flowing in established monoculturing directions
tends to stick there,
accumulating ever more fatty tissue,
monopolistic 
monotheistic
monotonously chronic issues
of economic heart failure
ensues hardening of political life's 
systemic trauma arteries.

More polycultural integrity 
of Win/Win co-passion
sustains resonant 
ecologically economic enlightenment
and neurologically healthy 
resilient political empowerment
where monocultural supremacy, 
with stressed-out hardening arteries, 
will fail
to optimally thrive,
while sucking in environmental resources
until formerly healthy families 
and communities 
and species over-consume 
and wilt 
and fail
faster than our interdependent
systemic healthcare replacement rate.

What do starving and thirsty bio-health systems need from you
with you
of you
through you
to share with you
every nurturing grace we could cooperatively contain?

My answer does not end 
with another monotheistic TrumpCard,
or anthro-supremacist 
patristic
industrial ballistic
militarized Capitalistic
retributive justice competition.

These are in dynamic opposition
to all reconnecting religious feelings
and thoughts.

Hearts over-flowing with oppositional power-investment
will only further harden current monotheistic death-trends,
traumatically degenerative 
EarthCardiac arrest
of panentheistically religious 
indigenous 
love-life revival.

I broke my own heart

Burger King’s and KFC’s
Large kebabs topped off with cheese
Too many beers slip down with ease
A Double Whopper, no salad please

Pile on the pounds, put on the weight
That greasy fry tasted just great
Eat it all, let’s clear the plate
Another bar of chocolate

Living it large on the cardiac ward
The doctors have, my heart explored
Lying here on a hospital cart
Would you believe, I broke my own heart

Fresh cream buns, so nice to eat
The icing sugar tastes so sweet
Scoff the lot and then repeat
A McDonald’s meal, a late night treat

Living it large on the cardiac ward
The doctors have, my heart explored
Lying here on a hospital cart
Would you believe, I broke my own heart

Taking a walk, an alien activity
Go to the gym? To much productivity
Lazing around is joyous proclivity
All hail the God of inactivity

And now I regret being such a glutton
I should have refused that last plate of mutton
Wishing there was a reset button
For a life of chips and beer and bacon

Living it large on the cardiac ward
The doctors have, my heart explored
Lying here on a hospital cart
Would you believe, I broke my own heart


Dangerous Days

Dangerous days
Truly , we are living in a world wher life has no guarantee
We have no clue of what's happening in the system.
We are no safe ,The lean people leaving their life through heart stroke.
The young people are suffering from cardiac arrest .
Life has no stability ,now a days..
Dangerous days..
We might be laughing ,standing ,walking but the next moment we are prone to brain stroke ,fell down become unconsciousness ,wake up in the hospital bed.
Dangerous days.
We can't plan our life ,because we might never know of death disturbing us..
Truly ,dangerous days ..
No life has warranty...
We might be proud of technology ,but still no sound knowledge of direction of death..
Technology doesn't stop death ...
We hope for a good days .expecting the life span raise up to atleast 70 ...
Dangerous days..

Ontology

ONTOLOGY

Water drips from the hairs on my arms, hands 
held high to avoid contamination. I can’t wait 
to begin. I guess this Adrenalin rush is what an actor feels  
before he strides on stage. A nurse helps me don 

my gown. I pull on my gloves. Surgeon, king of my domain. 
Minions adjust the mirrored overhead light. I grasp my scalpel.
Fractured images  explain the process to juniors. Jokey. Calm.
I’m floating on  the easy insouciance of experience. My patient’s 

elective surgery’s wasn’t serious. But my satisfied smile morphs into 
emergency paddles. A flat line – cardiac arrest. Attempts to revive 
him fail. I curse, jolted by this unexpected loss. Nothing to warrant
my sense of   guilt. And how might I explain to his devastated family?

The  theatre doors burst open.  His wife, wild-eyed. Shouting. My
husband came to me in the waiting-room. Out of his body. Saying 
you think he’s  dead. Doctor, do something… Before we can hustle her
out, my patient’s  pulse resumes beating. It doesn’t make sense.
Colour rushes back into his face. Nothing makes sense.

Limerick

I’m one, who has survived Sudden Cardiac Arrest,
About eight percent survive this most harrowing test.
You shouldn’t be here, the cardiologist said,
For a short time ago you were clinically dead,
God extended my expiration date and I am blessed;

Premium Member I Survived The Widow Maker Then Sudden Cardiac Arrest

I Survived The Widow Maker
Then Sudden Cardiac Arrest
Doctors Called Me Miracle Man
7/12/2024

A team of Doctors had accomplished, all they could do,
One told my wife, to Pray, Now “It’s in God’s hands.”
But he was telling her something she already knew,
and nothing would interfere, with my role in God’s plans.

I Survived The Widow Maker, later, Sudden Cardiac Arrest,
That day God had me placed, in all the right spots to prevail.
I live today for a purpose, and to God’s greatness I attest,
My life has become my testimony, for Jesus did not fail.

Cardiac Arrest

Zafar Supari killer uses neuro muscular chemical drugs
To induce sudden onset of body weakness to an extent
where subject is not able to move Legs which may further
Lead to Paralysis of whole body.Chemical drink or Injection
prevent messages from the nerve to the muscle.It damages
muscle and nerve function by blocking signals from nerves 
to muscles and there is no way to cure paraplegia tetraplegia.
Note.Zafar Supari killer DON is Dangerous..

Premium Member The cardiac dance, a waltz of hidden passions

The cardiac dance, a waltz of hidden passions,
has made our feeling a vibrant creature in a fraction of time,
O, celestial flyer, from the vault sprinkled with pure light,
You have settled like a meditation on my temple, gently swayed by a soft breath.
Our love has bloomed in the guise of a budding smile,
In the blaze that consumes us, and the breath that tangles in gusts,
Desire, that worn talisman of dream, perched in a bent soul,
With the breathing of a world that pulses in unison with the year coming to life.
We have concluded a dream, an immaterial pact, sealed with the gold of life,
You and I, in a second and a mute line, remaining at the horizon of our lips at dawn,
From the aftermath of the kiss that transfigured us, in a psalm of liberated love.
Our love has transformed into shooting stars over the serene abyss of eternity,
But where have these stars lain, and in what realms have they dissipated,
Which path did the time take that we tenderly weaved shoulder to shoulder,
While the heart sings, with sweet arrhythmias, a longing forever shared.
