Sorry but I can't read your work. It's too dark. My computer got a problem in color. I know that it is my problem but sorry I can't give my five star I haven't read any. I just can give the four star. And my support. Good luck.

An interesting read on the pressures we put upon ourselves in life, and you can almost feel the panic as the pain increases. I hope this wasn't a true account, if it was, you were very lucky.

Oh, what little death is this... it makes me first think of someone experiencing a seizure. Or perhaps someone in the throes of a tremendous pain, a condition of self. Thank you for sharing.

Dark

This is a very dark poem
Words were effective in bringing this poem into the thoughts of death as well as the suffering that comes with it

Enjoyed this as it was a pleasure to read and review...Ron

Brings back unpleasant memories of my own experience. Totally ignoring the signs until the limit is pushed too far. Several heart attacks and 3 stents later, I am very lucky to be able to live to tell. Good job.

That's a richly dark persona you're trying to get across. There's a hint of a definite behavior pattern that progressively worsens his/her condition, bringing him/her closer to death.
With free verse, I feel you have to compensate for the lax form (no meter or rhyme pattern) with a unique structure (how the poem looks on the page) and/or a special rhythm. This poem lacks these attributes, as well as compelling imagery. It's loaded with mental and physical action, which can be dull, and is without compelling imagery.

Hello my friend, you reflect the reality of a heart-attack quite well, life's indeed like a pressure cooker, 'Inch by inch the pain increases..."--better have that reality check before the tumbling. Thanks for sharing.

A great narrative poem on what appears to be a heartattack. I liked your flaunting life attitude with a quasi submission to the darkness. A gutsy and vivid poem.
