Episode

I am 75
Watching
TV at 8 pm
When reality
Telescopes like
A TV turned off sort
Of collapses onscreen
Things seem to shrink
Then I regain control
My picture of things
Returns to normal
I muse I had my
Left carotid
Artery a bit
Blocked
For 15
Seconds
Then clear
But I seem to
Feel fine I test if
I can walk text talk
And all seems normal
But I take two aspirin
And go to bed read
A few hours I’ve a
Left carotid test
Scheduled in
A week so
More fun
To come
Strange
I’ve never
Felt how light-
Headed feels but
Am glad to observe
And learn if only to share.
