Reflux action

Reflux action

There is just so much

Indigestion a guy can stomach

Before reflux sticks in the throat

The older you get

The easier it is to say no

To what you know

Will not sit well.

The trick is to enjoy just enough

Of what is good

Going down

Before it turns into something

Bad coming up.

Don’t tell me you have never

Had a mouthful

It might be true today

But one day your cast iron stomach

Will crack at the seams

It will happen

Mark my words

Nobody gets away with indulgence

Cost-free

It is a rule

Ask Titus Andronicus

Or Oliver Twist

Today we eat meat

For tomorrow we sip gruel.
