Restless Legs Syndrome
You suffer daily at your office job.
All day long your restless legs bob and bob,
wiggling, quivering--- up, down, left, right.
This antsiness keeps you awake at night.
You try to relax, lying on the couch.
Your legs are jumpy, even as you slouch.
These symptoms increase, keeping you twitchy,
troubled, anxious, jittery, fidgety.
For your disorder, you have tried the pills,
but they give you nausea, bloating, chills,
dizziness, lethargy, constipation,
vomiting, and a burning sensation.
Let's race for a cure with a 12k run.
You can even walk; it's all for good fun.
Let your restless legs get lost in the groove.
When it's all over, your legs won't want to move.
