Cardiac Arrest                                                   


            She couldn’t say she loved me
            From the bottom of her heart
 
            So I assumed it was the top
 
            And could hardly catch my breath
            Out of delight
 
            I mean –
            That’s where all the
            Hot red blood from the bottom
            Derives
