EKG machine

White, sterile walls

And an equally colorless person in the middle

of machines attached to their body

Beep

Goes the EKG machine, 

Their monitored life line 

ascends to the top and back down,

pixelated things never stopping.

Beep

Each beat is different,

Closer or farther apart than the last one

Beep

The apex is there for less than a second,

descending immediately after,

only to rise up again as quickly as it fell.

There is one thing similar to that of an

EKG machine,

And that is sisterhood. 

There are ups and downs of the life line,

but it never stagnates until one loses the other,

Like when an EKG machine loses its only connection to life.
