We Are All Inventors

I know most of us come up with ideas and schemes that look like a surefire way to do something better and then somebody else comes up with it and makes a fortune. I invented a new disorder eleven years ago and my internet search reveals it hasn't been discovered yet in 2021. Wow! I nailed it.

Hypertension Deficit Disorder

I have named a new disorder
According to my think,
We were discussing low blood pressure
And it came to me in a blink,
As if a cursor were brightly flashing
Within the deepest recess of my mind,
Several concepts were bouncing around
When all at once it was clearly defined.

Rarely do we ever examine
That hypotensive son of a gun,
There are a lot of good reasons a BP is low
Like the planets revolving the sun,
But more commonly our major statistics
Are driven by those hypertensive fools,
Yes, we know these bloody freaks so well
They're the drivers for all of our tools.

And as a result, the naming
Of this barely known uncommon disease,
Has gone for eons without its own title
It's more like a sniffle than a sneeze,
So let it be known upon this day
October twelve in the year twenty-ten,
Hypertension Deficit Disorder
Has now been transcribed by this pen.

Wielded by this one very author
And posted on this world-wide-web place,
If you wish to hijack this naming
I'll throw my copyright into your face,
You see I need to rake in some royalties
My autumn years will come quickly to hand,
I'm open to grandiose ideas and schemes
It's a part of the future I've planned.

Hypertension Deficit Disorder
Is a well-defined disease to a few,
In the many long years of this nurse
I remember just a couple I knew,
Who were prescribed high-salt in their diet
And proposed to render higher emotions,
Because we know in retrospective analysis
These are evidenced and reliable potions.

I am thinking of publishing my data
Though it's a narrow, small selection research,
I'll set up a booth and a table
On Sunday outside of your church,
When it's one-hundred degrees beneath the shade tree
The parishioners will be dropping like flies,
Hypertension Deficit Disorder
Will be easily proven, no surprise.
