Wanted: A Miraculous Chemical Poem by Portia Burton

Enough of this regular torture
Of chemo-therapy for my mother!
Will some scientist ever find
A miraculous chemical,
Which when injected into her
Will rejuvenate all her systems,
Iron out those untimely wrinkles,
Make her skin cheese-smooth,
Her yellowed teeth sparkling white,
Her lungs strong again
To breath without gasping,
Grow lustrous auburn hair again
On her now bald head,
And most importantly,
From that scarred and shriveled skin
Make her right breast become again
Full, firm and luscious,
So that I may rest my head on it
To feel her divine warmth again,
And weep thankful tears of joy!
