Poetry: Disease

"Pilling You"


We love that you're sick,

It keeps us in biz,

What you think you don't have,

We'll come up with and fix.

Have you heard of itchy toenails?

It's the latest disease,

Our little pills might cure it?,

But could make your eyelids bleed.

Don't worry about the side effects,

They're just a small hitch,

Your heart may stop beating,

But at least your skin won't itch .

So keep on getting sick,

Our pricy can pills help you along,

And if the side effects kill you,

Well shucks, your illness will be gone.
