Bad Poetry for a Good Friend

Hey all.  It's been a while.  Sorry, I'm not so sure I love blogging as much as other people do.  Anyway, here' the first post of the year!




A friend of mine went in for open-heart surgery today.  This poem is for him.  



Mechanics

The heart, that is,  
The literal,
Not that, 
The figurative

Is complex
And multi-
Functional

The heart, however
Miraculous,
Is not
Perfect

They break
And need
Fixing

How I wish
That I 
Were a 
Mechanic
