I recently heard my heart beat when I had an echo cardiogram - sounded a bit scary actually Dave.

i phoned my sad heart
and it text-messaged me back,
"The line is busy."

Yes, I can imagine that it would.

That is the best haiku I have read in a long while. I was going to reply with another, but decided that I couldn't follow it. Thanks.

Hi Hannah and a warm welcome to my blog. Thanks for commenting.
It is true, yes. Apparently there is a 59p app, downloadable from the internet, which turns an iphone into a stethoscope. Many doctors now prefer it, seemingly.
