Blood music
When the veil of silence
wraps me in its tenderness,
my veins sync with
a myriad of oscillations.
Erythrocytes, singing high on oxygen.
Lymphocytes, intoning chants in fight.
Macrophages, blessing their meal.
Basophils, screaming at allergens.
Neutrophils, carrying the chemo tact.
Eosinophils, slaying the big brass.
The song of life,
orchestrated
by ancient chemicals,
ruled by the cadence
of the heart.
In,
out,
beat,
heartbeat.
