Treatment of a Doctor

With an ailment I went to a doctor 
To learn prevention is better than cure
But he prevented me to talk 
And taught me nothing ,he wrote something 
Totally illegible ,except ‘’Rx’’ 
On the left side of the prescription
As if he did not know how to write
 Or he did not want me to know
 What was my disease and what’s its medicine 
Out of fear that his trade-secrets were revealed
All these provoked me to think that 
He is more of a blackmailer than a trader 
And more of a patient than a doctor who is suffering
 From diseases called insecurity and superstition 
And badly want of a nice treatment 
Which I gave him in quick succession 
And all that I did without charging any fees.
