Munching into a Beef Burger
and savouring the pickle’s juice.
Slurping on a Coca Cola
and eating a chocolate mousse.
Suddenly
his heart races
like a person running
to their loved one.
A cold hand grips his heart,
his life.
Eyes frantically searching for help
Until he spots his diary wide open
It reads:
Tuesday 2nd 1:00pm
“Time for annual heart
check.”
