Warning!

This medication should not be used,
Do not drive while you're dazed and confused,
It may cause deafness, blindness or death,
Constipation and shortness of breath.

May result in unsafe conditions,
Suicidal thoughts, deep depressions,
Discolored skin at injection site,
Rashes, tremors and seven year blight.

Think I'll just wait and see if I live,
Without whatever this drug might give.
Medication your symptoms may ease,
But is the cure worse than the disease?

andrew, rob, Ladybee, Redex and goodguy, thank you all for chiming in on this one. I had just watched one of those awful commercials. They include all of those warnings about the side affects and interactions when someone is prescribed these things. Why do all the rest of us have to listen to them over and over?

Thanks HGL4u! My mom had a bunch of morphine pills left over when she passed. I wound up flushing them, but that was years before anyone thought of what it was doing to the environment. Bet there was some stoned fishies that morning...

And thank you Gashly. You're too kind.
