Pulse...

[Reichenbach]

Pulse...

Beep...
Can you hear it.
Beep...
It's always there.
Beep...
It never stops.
Beep...
It thinks I care.

Beep...
It keeps on saying.
Beep...
I'm still alive.
Beep...
If it's not there.
Beep...
Will I survive.

Beep...
Yes I'm awake.
Beep...
Just say goodbye.
Beep...
Why won't you leave?
Beep...
Just let me die.

Beep...
Am I still breathing?
Beep...
Are you sure?
Beep...
I'll have to change that.
Beep...
And never more.

I love that poem, but is it wrong that it made me laugh... I don't know how many people here have the comedian That Canadian Guy but he does this rant about how our life is dictated by beeps, and it is just so simular to what has been written here it all I could see is the comedians purplish red face screaming BEEP!... but very good poem, kinda makes you wonder if medical technolgy is their for the patient... the annoying beep that never lets you sleep, always interrupts.

You're right, I never looked at in a funny way before! It's like the little machine that goes BEEP on Monty Python!
