The Night I Bought The Pills Poem by gershon hepner

The night I bought the pills she claimed
her chest hurt, and they took her to
the ER, and I felt ashamed—
is this what wonderpills can do?
They told her she had heartburn and
discharged her back into my care;
the wonderpills, I understand,
had no connection to the scare,
and she agrees I should not waste
the wonderpills on any other
ladies who are to my taste.
With her around why should I bother?
