    tender heart
    life enervates
    love braces


  • Matty

    ok, my last one was 3-4-3… so if you must have a 5-7-5:

    love’s effluvium
    unrequited love torments
    bemused little heart


  • wangston

    an enlarged heart tells
    of cardiac injury -
    cholesterol stuffed!


  • Lacey

    Butter is so good
    Arteriosclerosis
    Exercise I should


  • jane

    you flutter and flop
    but don’t ever stop, that’s good
    slimy, shiny heart
