Cure for What Ails Me

Afghanistan is the place to go
Lapis Lazuli is brought out in buckets
Her blues shining in the sun
Healing me in spite of myself

A stone that boots your immune system
sooths inflammation, alleviates insomnia
overcomes depression and purifies your blood
I should have brought some relatives with me for this

I go down deep into the cave, swallowing my fear
understanding the benefits will outweigh my feelings
they allow me to choose my own stones
I feel charged, alive, healthier almost instantly.
Lapis Luzuli is the cure for so much that ails me.
