*******************
After great pain, a formal meeting comes –
Sales reps sit ceremonious, all ears –
While Dworkin and Turk
Collect their money and get to work.
The closed conversation goes round –
FDA-crown’d —
Of Oxy, Roxy — Of a drug pandemic
Regardless grown —
And now Zohydro, thrown –
In the mix.
Each and every soul gets a fix —
Pain or no pain — land of addicts, ho! —
First – Chill – then Stupor – then the letting go –
