Doctor's Dilemma

DOCTOR’S DILEMMA

A doctor who practiced in Maine,
Began to experience pain.
Called himself out,
Diagnosed gout,
Exhaustion and muscular strain.

For doctors it doesn’t look neat,
Getting worse than patients they treat.
He couldn’t wait,
In such a state.
Just retired, his life’s work complete
