The Object Poem by Eeva Park

A study of melancholy was conducted.
A team drawn up.
A project manager appointed,
root causes of depression investigated,
measured the general signs of continues stress,
sorrow and blood pressure weighed,
cholesterol
eyesight
shaking of hands
kidneys,
heart examination by ultrasound
and I saw
lying naked with gel on the left breast
how
the first being from the of depths
of the earth`s first sea pulsated on the blue screen
in flaming volcano eruption.
