A Poem about My Health

Those goddamn hives,
Hives here, hives gone,

"They're not so bad",
You've got them wrong!

Remember that,
They're not like grass,

You kill them once,
They WILL come back.

I had them Tuesday
And Wednesday too,

Si, estan aqui Manana?
I'm suing the makers of Benadryl or doing something else drastic.
