Stress Therapy Poem by Bill Knott
Stress Therapy
Time, time, time, time, the clock
vaccinates us.
and then even that lacks
prophylaxis.
Ticktock-pockmarked, stricken
by such strokes, we
get sick of prescriptions
which work solely
on the body.
Systole diastole--
It is by its very
intermittency
that the heart knows
itself to be an I.
(Stress Therapy by Bill Knott.) **Light verse. Amusing.
