acetylsalicylic acid
by Kalikala SmithA savior,
to be taken with water,
and with caution.
Small, convenient,
painless, and relieves,
what you have.
Solves ailments,
concludes pain,
absolves aches,
with a swallow.
An easy addiction
for a hypochondriac,
a supposedly safe
little pill
for any sickness
you might want to have.
Who needs
anything else? 04/12/2003 Author's Note: ASA: aspirin
