Fine Print

be sure to tell your doctor,
and tell the pharmacist too,
everything, every ache of head,
every salty-smelling scent
every painful bump, 
every discoloration underwent 

if you have had bitten lip syndrome,
if you experienced excessive tears
or had feelings of dizzy giddiness,
or felt the envy of your peers

if you've ever had the symptoms
of a broken heart or just
fell into a lovers schism
or ever thought hard on priapism

be sure to tell your trainer,
your friends and your confidant too,
that love and life just might be fatal
not to approach them nonchalantly

say the daily dosage is important
the timing too is vital
to avoid reactions inadvertent
and have prognosis of good survival 

say on your lifelong loving quest
nurture your natural proclivity
be sure to get the necessary rest
and balance your diet and activity

don't take in too much sweets
and don't worry about the stress
live life and love it complete
is the finest print I can suggest
