fix my brain

fix my brain and hope that would fix everything
my brain that will fix everything else
not a plaster big enough
a plaster wouldnt cover my arm
my hand
‘please put everything right for me

A stroke is a brain attach
"A stroke happens when the blood supply to the brain is cut off and brain cells become damaged and die. It has an immediate effect on body functions (like moving arms and legs) and mental processes (like thinking, remembering and understanding language). Sometimes the symptoms last a short time- called a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or mini stroke. In other cases, the symptoms may last for a longer time."
