The Laureate-The Cure?

Pharmaceutical companies
are either dumb or quite insane.
They hype their products on TV
and what they say to me inane.

Am I to tell my doctor that
I want him to proscribe a drug
that might just make feel good
or kill me deader than a bug?

They say if I'm allergic
to words I've never heard,
it's best I never take the pill...
or ask the closest nerd?

I do not want to hear of cures
for all the plagues that sicken Man,
so please remove them from TV
and I'll just use my talisman.
