Voodoo Curse
Never know when we converse
Whose path we’ll happen to traverse
Can anyone really be that perverse
To willy nilly cast out a nasty curse
To chant for effects brutally adverse
With implications bitterly diverse
An evil voodoo spell I must reverse
Boils hives and warts somehow inverse
I throw on a coat and grab my purse
Head off to see a doctor or a nurse
In ointments and remedies I’m willing to immerse
Medical bills disburse then reimburse
I hope to feel better but I feel worse
Suspecting I may soon be leaving in a hearse
But first I’ll sing my song or write a verse
To leave my mark on this awesome universe
