Follow Directions

A weird sight one day I did see.
A lady played organ for me.
   She had placed in a cup.
   While it was still wrapped up.
A condom as neat as could be.

I ask her to please please explain,
She said,"Please don't think I'm to blame.
     I found in the park
     One day before dark.
And it's the weirdest thing, so insane.

I wasn't sick all year if you please.
Not even a cold or a sneeze.
   The directions you see
    I followed to the tee!
Read 'Place on organ to prevent disease.' "
