The Placebo

The Placebo’s effectiveness is based on the belief of the patient.

If the patient believes in its curative powers, the patient feels relief.

The belief caused the relief.

The Placebo alone has no power. There must be belief for it to work.

Once the patient believes in the Placebo his suffering diminishes.

Symptoms are ignored because the Placebo is “working.”

The sickness spreads as the Placebo is religiously taken.

The Placebo claims to cure everything as the peddled snake oils of the past.

The cancer claims more space as the Placebo stands guard.

Blindly believing is dangerous and deadly.

It’s time for some REAL medicine.

We are sick. We are dying.

The Placebo is a fake.

The Humans are Driving me Crazy

My own species is making me feel like an alien.

I may have to pull in, tune out and hide in my shell.

 

My nature friends may be pesky eating my flowers and trash,

but I can forgive them. They are just trying to survive.

Who am I to hoard yummy trash and delicious flowers and all this space?

Humans will not get my forgiveness for their hateful behavior.

So I will be sharing all my nonhuman friends today.

They make me smile.

They make me laugh.

They keep me company.

They warm my heart.

I am thankful for them.

I will protect them.

Because I love them.
