I am the ECG, what do you see when you look at me?
Do you see the morphology of my waveforms and measures?
Do you see a myocardial infarction or a left bundle branch block?
Who knows what you will see when you look at me.

Each of us a song to sing, a captured moment in time, singing like
musical notes on a manuscript sing to the mind and soul of the musician;
desperate now for you to see the song in me.

Sometimes I sing to you, brash and loud, sometimes I whisper
like a voice in the crowd. But if you look closely, surely you'll see the song in me; because I am, the ECG.
