My Best Friend

One bad day,
my elbow was hurt,
and i decided to see a doctor
near my father's home.

When i was going,
i met my friend along the way
who told me like a doctor
that all i was planing  was useless!
because the disease i had,
was really cheap and easily to treat.

He advised me to use his computer,
because it was quicker,
and cheaper than a doctor!
what i had to do,
simply put in urine,
that  it will tell me what i have to do.

Since i was a fool,
i figured straightly away,
and i had nothing to lose!
what i did, i poured my urine in it,
and deposited a coin.

Ha! it started making noise,
and various lights flashing
up  and  down.

After a minute,
it popped a small slip of papper,
reading that you have already cured,
and what you have to do,
it's to soak your arm in hot water,
you will be more fine!

Really i wondered how amazing
the technology was,
and how it would change my life!
i didn't bothered at all,
i tried that trick earlier as i can,
but all what i got was really fire,
i will never forget in my life.

Oh! what a  fool i was!
