A colleague in pain, offered a pill, she
swallowed one obligingly, feeling better
it seemed, decided to take one myself
made a ghastly discovery
The container is filled with small plastic
beads, laughing uproariously, just for
the hell of it took one myself, a most
perfect placebo
I punished myself for my carelessness
by taking the same medication I offered
another in blissful forgetfulness of the
beads I wanted to keep
She seems to be much better today
after laughing so much, I also feel
wonderful, maybe the placebo
effect worked a charm
For both of us!
