Modern Medicine Is Nonsense
Ah, I do not and will not believe in modern medicine anymore,
it is not really modern, it is just meant to scare, that's for sure.
See, just a few years back chocolate was so bad for your heart
but lately the black variety turns out to be good it could not hurt.
I was once advised to stay off foods that are high in cholesterol
but now they say the high density type is in fact pretty acceptable.
Those smart asses told me to eat garlic because it is so good,
then last month came findings over-rating it as a health food...
which means all I ever got from making garlic as part of my diet
were body odors and stinking breaths…and that is not quite right!
Modern medicine is so fickle, just like our beloved womenfolk,
often ordering us to jump without even first taking a quick look.
Better to just enjoy gobbling up what you find on the dining table
for life is short and them no-good doctors are just fooling us all.
