Sick Bay
What an experience
As this episode
Of food-borne disease?
Bout of bad break
Food poisoning
Stomach cramps hurt
Sweet dessert bowl
Odd bacterial strain
Feverish sensations
Excruciating pain
Hazardous purging
Troublesome strains
Again and again
Weak legs dragging
Body disarray
Anti-bloating carbon
Upset stomach pills
Pain in discomfort
Three days edging
A certain complaint
Suffer in silence
Touch of remedy
Hold heart steady
Restore the healthy
What a blunder
Of food plunder
In that wonder!
