Afib

Ms. Haiku

Too much caffeine instigates heavy beats
that I feel on my left side. Such a curse!
I demote brewed loyalty drastically
and stare into mirrors while I rehearse
the lost roles of coffee lovers worthy
of Oscars. Caffeine is my craved for hearse,
but is it really so bad? The known fees
of a pained, repaired heart, but coffee first.

Atrial fibrillation suggesting
my end has rocked like an incompetent
drummer. My fingers are ascertaining
a worker working overtime. She spends
vacation working off line. I'm feeling
her to-do list hoping it's not all checked.
