Cure for What Ails Me

Afghanistan is the place to go Lapis Lazuli is brought out in buckets Her blues shining in the sun Healing me in spite of myself A stone that boots your immune system sooths inflammation, alleviates insomnia overcomes depression and purifies your blood I should have brought some relatives with me for this I go down deep into the cave, swallowing my fear understanding the benefits will outweigh my feelings they allow me to choose my own stones I feel charged, alive, healthier almost instantly. Lapis Luzuli is the cure for so much that ails me.
